Shereen Ashraf - Egypt
It is indeed a great honor for me that I have graduated from ZSIS, for here I have
learned what responsibility means, achieved a great success in my educational level,
and had the best friends I could ever dream of having.
Thanks God for that… I do hope that when I go to college I would find the same qualities
I’ve always found here, especially ZSIS homelike environment and its highly qualified
and lovely teachers.
Abdulrahman Khizindar - Saudi Arabia
When I first was introduced to ZSIS, I was one of the very few non-Lebanese. This
made me a bit uncomfortable at the beginning. But as time passed, I started to appreciate
the intimacy of the school's staff and students. I gradually started to feel the
care each one pays to another due to the school's homey nature.
One of my best experiences in ZSIS was the 2006 bazaar. It was simply awesome. It
included various types of mini-stores: Star Bucks, Costa Coffee, mini shawirma restaurants,
and even a scary house for kids. The great variety of the invitees and attendees
furthered the beauty of the event. Individuals from many schools were participating
in the bazaar. They were all dressed up in weird costumes. My long time friend Ammar
even won a computer in the bazaar. I have also experienced many other good times
at the school.
I would like to say that I am so proud of my school Zahrat Al-Sahra’a International
School.
Dina Hussam - Egypt
I've been at ZSIS for eight years, and let me say, these have made the best stage
of my life. It is at ZSIS where I spent my most wonderful and amazing days. Besides
my thanks for all my lovely and incredible friends and teachers for pushing me all
along, I really want to thank my parents who have sustained and supported me throughout
all my stages; I would also like to thank the great and wonderful principal Mrs.
Najah for her love, care, and support. Finally, I want to say to all those who have
stood by me till the end: You'll always be remembered.
Ahmad Baydoun - Lebanon
Hi! My name is Ahmad Baydoun. I think everybody knows me because I have been in
ZSIS school for 16 years, and still, I am in love with it! The experiences I have
gained from this school cannot be summed here. Every portion of this experience
is useful to my future.
This school is my best option because it helps us to build our future and guides
us to the best. One of the invaluable things that I gained at ZSIS was knowledge...knowledge...knowledge...
This is the most important consideration to every ZSIS member.
ZSIS has helped me to register for the college that I always dreamt to attend. I
want to thank you, ZSIS school. By now, you own me, and I consider you as my second
mom that has taken care of me all along.
Mawaddah Ahmed - Egypt
It would be no exaggeration saying that ZSIS is the most beautiful experience I
have ever lived at the educational and social levels!
Here, I have come to know some of the most intellectual, highly gifted students
whose existence triggers the spirit of challenge. It is here too where I met professional
teachers who, with all love and sincerity, put down their time and effort for their
students' betterment at all levels.
Firas Asfour - Palestine, Canada
I first came to this school in grade 8 after living in Canada for three years. In
the beginning, I felt weird for seeing that agglomeration of multinational people
at ZSIS. It was only later that I felt the warmth of the ZSIS community.
I had many great times in this place. One of these special times was the trip to
the beach (Beit Al-Bahr) in grade 9. We enjoyed an awesome day, swimming, playing
football, and getting tanned. This is not the only great thing about this school:
this school has hugged us by its good teachers and intimate students. At the end,
I would never exchange my experience here for any other.
Haya Miri - Syria
Finally, school years have come to an end, and a new phase of life is about to begin.
But looking back at the nine years that I’ve spent in ZSIS, I realize that it’s
not that easy to leave the place that I’ve lived in for almost a decade. I entered
ZSIS when I was just a little girl who knew nothing about life, and now I‘m leaving
ZSIS with a great American Diploma, good ethics, and pleasant memory of all the
good and bad times I had. Thanks to the wonderful Principal, Mrs. Najah Kheirallah,
the teachers and staff at ZSIS, I’m sure I can manage handling any obstacles I might
face in the coming years.
Ahmad Sultan - Syria
Being a student at ZSIS is good opportunity to achieve my goals. It has allowed
me an access to territories that were unknown to me, and has motivated me to become
what I had always wanted to be since an early age. I have been able to meet many
people.
ZSIS is my second home and I really feel that I am part of the ZSIS family even
though we come from many different backgrounds. So far, my experience at ZSIS has
been memorable. On my first day here, I could realize my own potential, the part
that I’ve never thought I have.
Without even knowing it, you become a person instantly prepared for the world outside.
With ZSIS having a melting pot of students from so many countries, there is optimum
opportunity for learning and understanding the diverse cultures closely and personally.
The many cultural events that were organized by the students themselves helped me
arrive at better understanding of what cultures retain within.
It is such an honor to be part of a multicultural community that makes the body
of ZSIS.
HUSSAM YAHYA - Egypt
I started in ZSIS when I was a seventh grader. Until now, these six years have been
my best life span. The school has the good site and the required facilities that
cater for its students. That is what helped and attracted me most because you can't
find this in all schools. All the students are helpful. The teachers too care about
their students through helping them boost their marks.
The school has made me have fun in many indoor and outdoor activities. And the best
thing in this school is that you may not lose friends. Across all the six years,
I didn’t have single fight with any of my classmates or any other student in the
school. So, these are 6 years of greatly peaceful experience.
Basheer Subei - Syria
Whenever I rate the qualities of schools in Jeddah, I cannot help but thank God
that I have studied at ZSIS. With high standards of quality education, ZSIS bolsters
a strong curriculum and a vividly intriguing learning experience. It has been a
privilege to study there.
Hazem Al Halabi - Syria
I have spent a very important part of my life in ZSIS, and I think that during this
period, my school has helped me acquire the skills and experience required for the
next stage of my life. In my opinion, the most valuable thing I have learned at
ZSIS is how to cope with stress and difficulties, and particularly how to be very
well prepared for examinations and standardized tests while still managing to exploit
limited free time to perform beneficial activities. This balance, I think, is something
I need for the upcoming stage of my life. By now, I am so confident and well prepared
for university.
Bassel Al Adas - Lebanon
Now, and after fifteen years of schooling in ZSIS, I truly feel a strong bond tying
me to the school that has nourished my mind and raised me throughout the years.
I can't perceive how those years have passed at an unbelievable speed, or how my
schooling years have come to an end. But what can't be forgotten are the various
experiences and the wide knowledge I have gained here at ZSIS along with the many
beautiful memories of the days I spent with friends and teachers.
Ahmad Emad - Egypt
Although I feel an overwhelming rapture for bearing the idea of graduation, I feel
greatly sorrowful for the fact that I’ll spend my last days of school with great
peers with whom I have been hooked since five years.
Teachers have given the support and friends the feeling. Thanks to the help of Mrs.
Najah Kheirallah (Principal) and my friends, I’ve improved my academic level quite
considerably.
At ZSIS, life is the stimulus, and knowledge is the response. My life’s perspective
has changed nowhere but in ZSIS.
MOHAMMAD SALAMA - Palestine, Canada
I find ZSIS a proper place to study at. In ZSIS, a multicultural school, so many
interesting things happen almost every day. It is the best school ever in my point
of view. There I have gained both experience and global outlook. ZSIS is the choice
because it combines knowledge, virtues and creativity. I like the flexibility of
selecting the major elective courses. Furthermore, I have gained an incredible experience
since I came here. ZSIS students always have the desire to learn and experiment
new things and acquire new knowledge. Finally, I am confident that I shall prosper
in the future due to the marvelous way ZSIS has prepared me.
Samer Nowailati - Saudi Arabia,Philippines
Coming from the Philippines, I’ve been studying in ZSIS for the past three years.
This was a big step in my teenage. I wanted to come to a school that absorbs me
as one of its own children. Well, as they say, I hit the jackpot and entered a society
that has helped me adapt to the new environment. My eyes opened to a campus that
gave me a feeling of being at home.
The teachers are so caring and helpful. It is really nice to be surrounded by those
role models who have led me along the thorny pathway from grade ten through twelve.
MURHAF HAWRNAH - Palestine, USA
I have been in this school for the past four years. I have felt assured about its
quality education ever since the first day. I had a lot of great days. During some
of these days were trips and school activities. Teachers have been very supportive
to me and have helped me a lot throughout my studies. I am very thankful to the
great effort this school has served to make me better person.
