International Community School - Bangkok

The school emphasizes a Christian educational perspective, focusing on character development alongside academic achievement. It aims to cultivate students who are lifelong learners, discerning thinkers, competent communicators, quality producers, team players, responsible citizens, and followers of Christ.

ICS offers an American-based curriculum for students in kindergarten through grade twelve, with an academic focus on college preparation. The high school program provides 24 Advanced Placement (AP) courses and requires a Senior Capstone Service Project for graduation. The school serves over 1,200 students across elementary, middle, and high school divisions.

The academic program is college preparatory, with graduates matriculating into top-tier universities. Students are required to complete a Senior Capstone Service Project, which involves researching a real-life problem, performing hands-on service, and presenting findings to a panel of educators and NGO leaders.

The school provides specialized support through its Special Education and English Learners (ESL) departments. Additionally, school counseling services are available to support students throughout their academic journey.

Admissions are reviewed holistically, considering past academic records, entrance exam results, and interviews. Applicants must demonstrate a level of proficiency in the English language to be considered for enrollment. Due to high demand, the school typically receives more applications than available seats, and payment of an application fee or completion of an entrance exam does not guarantee admission.

The school provides a one-page downloadable PDF calendar for the academic year, alongside a dedicated extra-curricular calendar. Parents can also access a comprehensive schedule through the FACTS Family Portal, which includes school events and classroom-based activities.

The campus features state-of-the-art facilities, including an athletic complex with swimming pools, a weight room, and multiple fields such as the Cafe Field and Gentry Field. Academic and creative spaces include modern science and robotics labs, computer labs, a media center, a performing arts center, a theatre arts room, and dedicated spaces for band, orchestra, and pottery. The school also provides indoor and outdoor playgrounds and a bouldering wall for elementary students.

Students participate in a wide range of enrichment activities, including athletics, student council, and student ministries. Secondary students are required to engage in annual Serving-and-Learning-Together (SALT) trips to serve communities throughout Thailand, and high school students must complete 40 hours of personal community service.
