ACG or AIS for my son. (starting kindergarten)

[Mango]

Hello.


I wonder if there's anyone out there who can give me some reliable information on choosing which school is better between ACG and AIS in Jakarta for my son to attend.

I've checked out some information on line and both schools seem good so far.
However, which one is better? Let me know the pros and cons of each.

If I send my son to either school, I want him to stay there from kindergarten all the way to grade 6 at least. So, I want to know possibly everything about the pros and cons of both schools. And which one you think is better and why.


So, any ideas / opinions ???


Thanks and best regards.

Mango - use the forum search facility with keywords ACG, and then AIS. Pay particular attention to advice offered by Puspawarna.

We have a kindergartener at AIS (as well as a 3rd and 5th grader). We are very happy with the school and the kindergarten program. The teachers are wonderful, creative, experienced, and just all around great.

We have many friends at ACG and it is also a wonderful school. I don't think you can really go wrong at either school. ACG is in the middle of a big building project so the site is under construction but it is a great space from what I've seen (we were there this past weekend for a swim meet). AIS is bigger in terms of enrollment, but still not huge.

If you can go see both schools you should. Meet the teachers. See how it feels.

Good luck!

Thank you Suzanne2545 and John Madden for your answers.

If it's okay, can you please write down more pros and cons in more details?

Can you also please tell me about the racial diversity of AIS? and ACG? For example, roughly 20% Americans, 15% Aussies, 10% Chinese and etc.
