SABIS®
is an organization that manages schools worldwide. In the year
2008-2009, approximately 56,000 students were enrolled in SABIS®
schools. The distinguishing mark of these schools is their implementation
of the SABIS® Educational System, a unique system
that offers a rigorous, internationally oriented, college-preparatory
curriculum for students aged 3 to 18+ focusing primarily on the
core subjects of English, Mathematics, Sciences, and World Languages.
The first school in what has since become the SABIS®
School Network was the International School of Choueifat.
It was founded in 1886 in the village of Choueifat, a suburb of
Beirut, Lebanon. Now, the SABIS® School Network
consists of Member and Associate Member schools that operate in
the private and public sectors. These schools all implement the
SABIS® Educational System, although each of them
remains financially and administratively independent.
