Established in 1886, the SABIS^® School Network is comprised of schools located in 15 countries on four continents and educates more than 63,000 students. The SABIS^® School Network, which is divided into two regions, America/Europe and North Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, provides students around the world with access to top-quality education that prepares them to achieve success in college and beyond.

In the U.S., SABIS^® member schools are predominantly public charter schools, which are publically-funded, tuition-free schools. Since 1995, SABIS^® has built a reputation for excellence in its U.S. member charter schools, whose students have consistently earned solid results. In the 2013-14 academic year, there are 11 SABIS^® member charter schools in the U.S. operating in 5 states from coast to coast.

Drawing on the strength of the results achieved by SABIS^® member charter schools, the network is set to expand in the near future. Two charter schools located in New Jersey have been approved for opening in the 2014-15 academic year. The International Academy of Camden Charter School and the International Academy of Trenton Charter School will each open in 2014-15 to students in Kindergarten through Grade 3.  Both schools will add a grade level each year of operation until they reach a full K-12 academic program. 

Several other SABIS^® member charter schools across the U.S. have been approved and are in the works for the 2015-16 academic year.  These include 3 schools located in New Jersey, 3 in Michigan, and 1 in Massachusetts.

“The charter school movement continues to offer great opportunities for the expansion of proven educational models such as SABIS^®,” said Jose Afonso, SABIS^® Director - U.S. Business Development.  “Our strong and consistent record of delivering superior performance in the most challenged communities across the country will continue to result in growth opportunities.”
