History

Adventist International School Siem Reap (formerly Cambodia Adventist School – Kantrok) began in 1999 as a literacy school for poor children. When the school first opened in 1999, classes were held on a veranda. Later the students received desks to sit on. The first permanent school building was constructed in 2002, with five classrooms. Today the school has 25 classrooms offering bilingual education from Kindergarten to grade 12.

In the year 2004, the school was officially recognised by the Cambodian government as a primary school. Having a Seventh-day Adventist school is important as government schools teach students on Saturdays, which conflicts beliefs of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and many schools will not allow children to have Saturdays off.

Academics

As of October 2023, the Cambodia Adventist School – Kantrok, has 226 students studying in grades K-12. The AISS has a strong emphasis on both academic and vocational training.
