Mission Statement and Beliefs

Mission Statement

American School of Kuwait Reviews is a blog created by former teachers and administered by former and current teachers and parents at the American School of Kuwait. We created this website with the following purposes in mind:

  • Critique decisions and actions made by school leadership while providing constructive ideas for how to remedy these issues.
  • Educate the ASK community about current events at the school.
  • Solicit feedback from the ASK community via frequent surveys and provide a transparent account of the input received.
  • Encourage members of the ASK community to become more active in pushing the school to enact positive change in order to create and inspire a positive school environment for all members of the community.
  • Educate the ASK community about standards of accreditation to address how actions and policies at ASK endanger its ability to remain accredited.
  • Help ASK return to its position as the best option for private international education in Kuwait.

We hope that the community will continue to provide feedback via comments, e-mails and survey responses so that we can continue to improve in our mission to serve you.
