Johannesburg High School
It is with great pleasure that I welcome our AISJ families to our 2023-2024 academic year. Our team looks forward to greeting our Grade 9 students (Class of 2027) to our High School and we extend a special warm welcomg to our Pretoria Eagles who are coming to our Joburg campus. And it’s always exciting to meet our new families - we hope that you feel the warmth and kindness of our AISJ family.
As we embark on another year of learning, we welcome three new teachers to our High School. Welcome to Mr. Ken Adler (Mathematics), Mr. Arthur Castro Smith (Physical Education) and Ms. Danielle Tidd (English).
We also welcome our new Assistant Principal, Dr. Patricio Saenz who will be leading our Grade Well Being team as we continue to develop our social and emotional learning program.
The year ahead will provide ample opportunities for learning, both inside and outside the classroom. We encourage all of our students to strive for personal excellence in their studies (Academics) and to engage with our three other pillars - the Arts, Service and Athletics.
Our team of teachers and counselors is here to support each and every Eagle to grow and learn. We hope to inspire learning and build our better world as we learn alongside your teenagers. And as we do this, we plan to laugh and have fun together!
Most importantly, we want each young adult to come to AISJ as their authentic self and feel like they belong to our community.
Welcome to AISJ’s High School family!
Nicole Schmidt
High School Principal
