Smoke Policy 2024

For those of you who are new to the city, I highly encourage you to purchase air filters for your home (and car) now – do not wait until the smoke comes because sometimes the supply is short, or the price is higher for the units. 

Whilst we have enjoyed good air quality so far this month, it is a matter of weeks (perhaps days) that the weather will become hotter, and with this there will be vast decrease in air quality. For those of you who have been in Chiang Mai a long time, you know what to expect and you are ready for the annual ‘Smoke Season’.

Please understand that the safety of your children is of paramount importance when the air quality begins to decrease. At NIS, we have established protocols in place to mitigate against the smoke. More information regarding our policy can be read here.

Tuition – 2024/25 Academic Year

As we celebrate our 30th Year of Academic Excellence, we have many improvement plans for our school campus. In addition to these many projects that you see happening all over the campus, there are many significant plans for the 2024/25 academic year and beyond which I look forward to sharing with you soon - it is an exciting time to be a NIS student! 

In order to sustain the quality of education and services we provide in terms of curriculum investment, faculty and staff recruitment and retention, and facilities and resources, the Governing Board and Administration Team have concluded that a modest increase of 5% in tuition for the 2024/25 academic year is necessary: 

An early bird offer of the 2023/24 tuition rate will be offered for families paying full tuition prior to May 31, 2024; this means that if 2024/25 tuition is paid prior to May 31, 2024 (either a single or both Semesters for 2024/25), the 5% tuition increase will not be applied. In addition to this early bird offer, we respectfully request that families submit a 20,000 THB deposit by March 29, 2024 (per child) – which will be deducted from tuition fees – to secure enrollment for the next academic year. 

Payment can be processed through our Finance Office during office hours (Mon-Fri at 8:30-15:00), or via the direct payment methods on the second page of the link above. If you have any questions related to the payment, please send an email to finance@nis.ac.th.

I sincerely appreciate your understanding, cooperation, and ongoing partnership as we strive to uphold the values and standards of excellence that define our school community. Our goal remains to provide the highest quality of education for your child. All of us at NIS are partners with you in providing a rich, cultural educational experience to every family who has enrolled their children at NIS. Thank you for entrusting us with the education and well-being of your children. Together, let us continue to nurture a vibrant learning community where every student can thrive and succeed.

Campus Safety: NIS Lockdown Drill

Update 6 Dec 2023

The safety of your child and all children at NIS as well as the safety of the school staff and support personnel is very important to us.  To maintain a safe environment for our children to study and learn, we must practice our emergency and crisis response plans by having practice drills designed to exercise our procedures. 

 

The purpose of this drill is to prepare all stakeholders on how to react in an emergency.  During a “lockdown drill” the perimeter of the school will be secured and will remain secure until the lockdown drill has been completed.

 

Due to the number of activities happening during December, the school has decided to postpone the Lockdown drill until quarter 3. This is to ensure that this important matter is given the attention it warrants.


If you have any questions about our school emergency protocols, please feel free to contact our Head of Student Affairs, Mr. Paul, at pkleinschmidt@nis.ac.th.
