EIS HS SECTION

Welcome to Ekamai International School! On behalf of the High School faculty and staff, I extend a formal welcome to you as we begin another academic year at Ekamai International School. Whether you are a returning member of our High School community, a family joining us for the first time, or a new addition to our incoming High School class, we are honored to have you as part of the Ekamai International School family. Our High School is dedicated not only to academic excellence but to the cultivation of character, critical thinking, and global citizenship. It is our firm belief that every student possesses distinct talents and capabilities, and it is our responsibility to provide an environment in which these qualities are nurtured and developed. Our High School faculty and staff remain steadfast in their commitment to fostering a rigorous, supportive, and inclusive learning environment for all. In the year ahead, we encourage our High School students to engage fully in the opportunities available to them — whether through academic pursuits, extracurricular involvement, or the cultivation of new relationships within our community. Meaningful growth is achieved through dedication, curiosity, and a willingness to embrace new challenges. To our families, we extend our sincere gratitude for entrusting us with your child’s High School education. We regard this as a shared responsibility and warmly welcome your continued engagement and partnership throughout the year. I look forward to a year defined by achievement, integrity, and collective progress. Thank you for being part of the Ekamai International School High School community. Respectfully, Mr. Merle Das HS Principal

EKAMAI INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL | HIGH SCHOOL PORTAL | STUDENT HANDBOOK

“The greatest want of the world is the want of men—men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall. Ellen G. White

An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you know and what you don't. Anatole France
