Chinese International School was founded in 1983 as a small “East meet West” school grounded with roots in Hong Kong and has now grown to a vibrant community of over 1,500 students aged 4-18. Located in Hong Kong, with a Study Centre for Year 10 students in Hangzhou, CIS’ mission to empower students to discover new paths, build bridges, and flourish on a life’s journey in pursuit of excellence, commitment to service, and stewardship of our future is supported by passionate educators, skilled administrators, dedicated operational staff, and a caring community. An alumni community of more than 5,000 spread across the globe includes leaders in law, finance, academia, science, technology, the arts, and beyond. The CIS relationship is one for a lifetime and our alums return regularly to school to share their wisdom with the latest generation of students.
