Facilities and Community
Our activities program at AISC is extensive and encompases grades 1-12. We
have good facilities on our campus for activities and Physical Education. Scheduling
for use of our facilities is done through the Activities Office. The facilities
include:
A theater where we hold a variety of functions, from plays, spirit rallys, dances, drama clases, music performances and school assemblies.
Two outdoor basketball courts with lights that can also be used for volleyball,
tennis, and for soccer (4 on 4 ) competitions.
Two outdoor covered areas where similar activities may take place. PE classes
use the covered area throughout the day and on weekends. It’s ideal for the
rainy season.
A small dirt/gravel pitch that is used for elementary soccer, softball, frisbee,
and other PE activities.
A 20 meter swimming pool with a diving area.
Access to the United Nations soccer pitches. We hold soccer practice, games
and tournaments there. Our PE classes also have access to them.
Acess to the city track stadium or the municipality’s stadium to do track
and field for PE.

Middle School Activities are for grades 6-8. Some activities are
competitive and students must meet the sponsors and the schools established
criteria to make the team. It is understood that many students at this level
are beginners in a particular activity and the coach’s main task is education.
Matches/games are scheduled when possible to provide the maximum benefit of
participation. Practice sessions may last from one hour to two hours per week
depending on the activity.
High School Activities are competitive and, depending on the activity,
practice sessions will last from one to two hours. Groups may meet two to
three times per week. These practices sessions include any scheduled games,
matches or events. Groups may meet on weekends or holidays to make up a practice
or simply to hold a practice session.
Activity Organizations
AISC is a member of two regional activity organizations. The Eastern Mediterranean
Activities Conference (EMAC) and the International Schools Activities Conference
(ISAC). EMAC and ISAC involve schools from the Middle East region. These organizations
are dedicated to promoting and providing activities through inter-school collaboration
and leadership initiatives among its member schools and student participants.
They encourage inter-cultural cooperation and provide the opportunity to broaden
horizons through travel. Each conference has rules and guidelines regarding
age limits, behavior, use of illegal drugs, travel and housing which AISC
follows.
In order for these international organizations to succeed, schools must
participate in or host a tournament each year. This site usually changes from
year to year. The student participants are housed by the host school for the
duration of the their stay, normally lasting four or five days.
