For expat executives and Vietnamese families alike, TAS offers not only academic distinction, but also the trust and transparency of a school invested in every child’s journey from now to the future.
Leadership With A Long-Term Vision
TAS is undergoing a powerful transformation under the leadership of CEO Van Xuan Thien, a seasoned educator and strategic visionary. The school has introduced sweeping upgrades in facilities, curriculum, and school operations - with the singular goal of building a sustainable, future-ready learning experience for all students. “Our goal is to become one of Vietnam’s leading U.S. - accredited international schools where students learn in an inspiring environment, maximize their potential, and are equipped to thrive as global citizens,” shares the CEO.
This vision is actively brought to life through including trengthening of the Academic Board with global experts, a modernized AP pathway with strategic academic guidance, data-driven management for operational transparency, and an expanded global partnerships to offer more scholarships, exchange opportunities, and student leadership programs.
In the 2024–2025 school year alone, TAS students were awarded 30 scholarships worth over USD 2 million from top universities in the U.S., Canada, Australia, and Europe - including UC Berkeley, UC Davis, University of Toronto, Monash, University of Melbourne, Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, and more.
A Multicultural And Purposeful Learning Environment
More than academics, The American School is a place where students grow into confident, compassionate individuals. With over 25 nationalities represented, TAS welcomes students from all backgrounds into a warm and inclusive school culture.
Seyuni, a dual British-Sri Lankan citizen, enrolled in Grade 3 as a shy and quiet child. Just two years later, she blossomed into a confident young emcee - cheerful, outgoing, and academically excellent. “We visited many schools, but after touring TAS and hearing from friends whose children were already enrolled, my husband and I were truly impressed,” says her mother Lankika. “TAS has everything we were looking for includings outstanding facilities, convenient location, and most importantly, a team of teachers who really understand how to help children shine,” adds Chathu, Seyuni’s father and a senior manager at an international architecture firm.
Set on a 25,000 m² campus in An Phu, TAS offers 100 international-standard classrooms, several science lab, STEM innovation rooms, and a professional auditorium; 2 swimming pools, 2 football fields, basketball courts, boxing studio, and gym, and edicated art, music, and dance studios. Here, students are encouraged to explore, express, and excel not only academically but also in sports, the arts, leadership, and emotional development. “Our mission is not only to help students succeed in school but to lead in life,” says TAS’s Academic Council.
International Quality, Sustainable Tuition
In a landscape where international school closures have caused concern, The American School offers consistency, care, and credibility. With a bold vision, proven academic success, and a commitment to diversity, TAS is ready to guide your child confidently into the future.
While many international schools offer high-caliber education, few do so with transparent and sustainable fees. At TAS, tuition is set at just two-thirds the cost of comparable international schools in Ho Chi Minh City - making it a smart, long-term investment for families.
