Banjul American International School (BAIS) is opening a full U.S. High School Diploma program in September 2020. This will be the first school offering the U.S. High School option in The Gambia. An information meeting will be held for all interested parents and students on Tuesday, January 7th 2020 at 7 pm at the school campus in Fajara.
According to BAIS Director, Myna Anderson, "The BAIS Board of Directors decided that students in The Gambia deserve to have the option to earn an internationally-recognized, U.S. High School Diploma, right here in Banjul. They took the decision to build a full high school program following an American credit system and further voted to offer this program of study at an affordable rate." Families paying out-of-pocket will pay a locally competitive tuition rate: $5,500 tuition fee and $500 technology fee -- paying $2,000 USD per term for a total of $6,000 total for the year. This offers an international standard education at reduced cost.
