Nestled in the bustling city of Amman is a vibrant community that welcomes students from over 45 different countries. As they step into the classroom, these students are embraced as part of the Scorpion family, preparing to become exceptional global citizens.

At ACS, our dedicated international teachers employ differentiated instruction, igniting a passion for learning and challenging each student academically. We empower our students with practical, real-life skills to equip them for success beyond their school years, enabling them to carve their own paths in the future.

Not only do our students embrace and support the local culture, but they also have the chance to explore various countries around the world. They participate in competitions, proudly representing ACS, and actively collaborating with communities in different nations, extending their compassion and dedication to building a better world.

Guided by our core principles of integrity, respect, compassion, and intellectual growth, ACS provides a collaborative learning environment that integrates personal development, ensuring a well-rounded educational experience.

When our students leave ACS, they carry with them cherished memories of a close-knit community that feels like family. They depart with the hope of returning one day, perhaps with a new generation of Scorpions, who will follow in their parent's footsteps and embark on their own transformative journey within our school's halls.
