CAIS

Welcome

Welcome to the Chinese American International School alumni webpage! For some of you, it has been more than a decade (or two) since you attended class in our two-room campus in the basement of the French American International School. Some will recall driving up the winding path to our Presidio campus every morning. Our most recent graduates will have memories of 150 Oak St. Regardless of the location in which they studied, CAIS alumni are connected by deep ties of cultural understanding and appreciation. We hope to bring our alumni together, building a sense of extended community, and that they will stay connected to old friends and teachers.

We treasure our graduates and celebrate you as you continue to succeed, learn and make a difference in the world. The purpose of these pages is to highlight CAIS alumni—their accomplishments, the part they played in CAIS’ development, and their life-long friendships with classmates and faculty.

Graduates, our doors are always open. Come by and say hello! We look forward to seeing you again.
