Celebrating 30 Years of SIS: A Journey Rooted in Purpose, Shaping the Future
Reflecting on Our Roots, Reimagining the Future of Education
Since 1996, SIS has been part of the education landscape in Indonesia and the wider region. What began as a single school was built on a clear purpose, to contribute to the development of education by providing learning that is meaningful, accessible, and rooted in strong values.
Over the past 30 years, SIS has grown steadily, expanding across cities and communities while staying true to its founding purpose. Today, SIS is a network of 17 schools, supporting students and families through different stages of learning and development. This growth reflects the trust placed in SIS and the commitment to delivering consistent quality across every school.
This year, SIS proudly celebrates 30 years of meaningful education. This milestone marks three decades of growth, purpose, and impact shaped by a clear belief that quality education should be accessible, values driven, and future focused.
Throughout this year, SIS will host a year long series of programs, experiences, and celebrations to honor our journey while looking ahead with renewed ambition. This anniversary is not only a moment to reflect on where we started, but also an opportunity to reimagine how education continues to evolve for the generations to come.
A Legacy Built on Strong Roots
For 30 years, SIS has grown alongside its communities with a strong sense of purpose. Our story is rooted in philosophies that continue to define who we are today.
A Community School
SIS began as a place where parents, teachers, and students learned together. That spirit of togetherness remains at the heart of SIS. Our schools thrive because of strong relationships, shared values, and a belief that education matters most when it is built as a community. This foundation has shaped generations of learners in a supportive, diverse, and inclusive environment.
A Resilient School
Over three decades, SIS has navigated change with strength and humility. From global shifts to local transitions, resilience has been embedded in how we learn and grow. This mindset has helped shape confident students who adapt, persevere, and develop the courage to face challenges with optimism.
A Green School
Respect for the world around us has always been part of the SIS identity. Our approach to education encourages responsibility, environmental awareness, and care for the future. By teaching students to appreciate nature and live responsibly, SIS nurtures learners who are mindful of the world they will inherit.
Reimagining the Future of Education
As SIS reflects on its roots, the future remains firmly in focus. The next chapter builds on our values while embracing innovation and growth.
A Future School
SIS continues to transform learning through creativity, technology, and global readiness. Our focus is on equipping students with the skills, mindsets, and confidence needed for a rapidly changing world. We encourage learners not only to adapt, but to lead.
A Model School
We are creating a model school that sets a new benchmark for academic excellence through a distinctive international curriculum pathway. Modular, flexible spaces grow with learning and community needs, while a strong focus on emotional, physical, and mental wellbeing shapes balanced, confident, and capable students ready for the future.
The SIS 30 Years Anniversary Logo
To mark this milestone, SIS introduces a special 30 Years Anniversary logo that reflects both our history and our future. The logo is rooted in the values that have shaped SIS since the beginning, community, resilience, and care for the world, while expressing forward momentum and growth.
Celebrating 30 Years of Impact
The SIS 30 Years Anniversary is a year-long celebration throughout 2026. Key initiatives will highlight the positive impact SIS continues to create, including community partnerships, sustainability efforts, and meaningful contributions that reflect our values.
Growing together with SIS means growing with a community that learns, adapts, and cares deeply, shaping students, educators, families, and the environments around them through education that creates lasting impact.
Highlights throughout the year include public and private partnerships, environmental actions, social impact initiatives, and moments of gratitude that bring the SIS community together.
A Journey That Continues
As SIS celebrates 30 years, we honor a legacy shaped by community, resilience, and care for the world. At the same time, we step forward with bold ideas that empower students to become confident, well rounded, and future ready individuals.
Reflecting on our roots reminds us where we came from. Reimagining the future inspires who we are becoming. Together, we celebrate 30 years of SIS and the countless futures we will continue to shape.
A major milestone event will take place on 10 April 2026 as part of the SIS 30 Years Anniversary celebration. This special occasion will also mark the Grand Launch of the Lakeview Campus at SIS North East Jakarta. The event will bring together leaders, educators, partners, and the wider community to reflect on the journey of SIS while sharing a bold vision for the future of education.
