Director's Welcome

A warm welcome to our European School community and to all families exploring the opportunities our school has to offer.

Two decades ago, European School was founded with a bold vision: to create a learning community where knowledge, values, and innovation come together to shape the leaders of tomorrow. As we embark on our 20th academic year, we are proud to see that this vision has become a shared story of hundreds of students, graduates, and families who have been part of our journey.

The past academic year marked another significant milestone. European School hosted the 5th Experiential Learning Conference, establishing itself as an international hub for innovative education and a center for collaboration, dialogue, and the exchange of ideas. Bringing together more than 500 educational leaders, experts, and practitioners from around the world, the conference reaffirmed our shared commitment to one common purpose: creating better education and, ultimately, a better future.

We are equally proud of the outstanding achievements of the Class of 2026. Graduates of our International Baccalaureate (IB) Programmes, the American School of Advanced Studies (ASAS), and the Georgian Programme once again demonstrated that European School opens doors to the world’s leading universities. This year, our students will continue their academic journeys at prestigious institutions across Europe, North America, and Asia. Record-breaking scholarship awards, admissions to Ivy League universities, and an expanding global university destination map are a testament to the strength of our University and Career Counselling Programme and our commitment to helping every student realize their full potential.

We begin our 20th academic year with another exciting milestone: the opening of the Tsavkisi Campus. More than a new campus, it represents a new vision for learning—a place where education develops in harmony with nature, and where every space, every experience, and every day is intentionally designed to nurture the holistic development of every child.

This year, we welcome nearly 2,000 students to our learning community. This growth is far more than a number; it reflects the trust that families continue to place in European School. We value this trust deeply. It inspires us to strive for continuous improvement and reminds us of the responsibility we carry in shaping the lives of the next generation.

As the Chief Executive Officer of European School, I firmly believe that our greatest strength lies in our community: our students, teachers, parents, and alumni, who together create an environment where curiosity, integrity, responsibility, and leadership flourish every day.

As we begin our 20th academic year, we look to the future with confidence and ambition. We remain steadfast in our mission to lead transformative education in Georgia and the wider region, to create new opportunities for our students, and to harness the power of education to build a better future.

I wish every member of our community an inspiring, joyful, and successful academic year.
