Elementary School Principal’s Welcome Message

Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year at Yangon International School Elementary!
At YIS, we develop leaders and believe in progress through education. We take pride in our school mission and our responsibility of fostering the development of the whole child as a participating global citizen and lifelong learner. Our dedicated faculty and staff provide an exemplary standards-based educational program and a robust after-school activities program in the elementary school. Our teachers are committed to helping each child achieve academic and personal success.
Parent partnership with school is a critical component of a child’s educational success. To this end, we welcome working with you throughout the school year for your child. We are happy to discuss your child’s education or social development with you and value your input and involvement in their education.
We strongly encourage you to participate in opportunities to learn more about your child’s education and work closely with the teachers throughout the year.
