Dear Parents:

Welcome to the International Academy of Beijing and our website. I hope you find this site informative and helpful.

IAB is a dynamic, faith-based school where "opportunity" is the key word. At IAB, we want to give students the opportunity to: grow in wisdom and knowledge while seeking to find the eternal truth that has guided mankind for centuries; develop skills and talents in the areas of music, drama, art and athletics; and discover how they can impact a world that grows more accessible yet more uncertain every day. We want our students to have the opportunity to seek justice for the unfortunate while realizing that we each need mercy. We want our students to act with both confidence and humility.

IAB's teachers are well-trained professionals who will care for their students and will do everything they can to help your child succeed. Our small class size allows our teachers to view each child as an individual and respond to him or her in a caring and compassionate manner while still challenging him or her to reach for excellence.

Selecting the right school in an international setting is a big challenge. As you consider a school in Beijing for your child, I hope you will give IAB a hard look! While we may be small, I think you will find that we have some qualities that are unmatched.

In Him,
Tim McDonald
Headmaster
International Academy of Beijing
