History

Originally located on the shores of South Lake in eastern Wuhan, South Lake International School first opened its doors in the fall of 2003. The school’s original enrollment consisted of just seven elementary students. That first year the student body grew to 23 students and both kindergarten and secondary divisions were added.

Now located in Hanyang in the Wuhan Economic and Technology Development Zone, and renamed for its host city and the famous river that runs through it, Wuhan Yangtze International School (WYIS) is a fully accredited pre-kindergarten through 12th grade school that provides expatriate children with a Western-style education taught in the English language.

In its brief history, the school has served hundreds of children from 26 nations and regions of the world. Its graduates have been accepted at major universities in the USA, Great Britain, Japan, and Switzerland.
