Message from our Head of School
I am honored to serve as Head of School/CEO of GEMS American Academy Qatar, a supportive, vibrant community that is not just a school, but a foundation for countless stories of growth, collaboration, and achievement.
I believe that the strength of a school lies in its people – students, parents, teachers, and staff – all working together toward a shared vision of nurturing independence and inquiry. I believe all children should learn in an environment that is safe and conducive to learning. I also believe in AAQ’s primary commitment to helping your children grow each and every day by providing them outstanding learning opportunities that support their development as global citizens and puts education first. It is our shared beliefs that will continue to make AAQ successful.
One of the most inspiring aspects of AAQ is the incredible opportunity to be a part of the growth of your outstanding children. They come to school with bright minds, kind hearts, curiosity, and a sense of responsibility toward one another. They reflect your family values of respect, purpose, compassion, and resilience. This also reflects our own core values. It is a privilege to support our students’ growth and development.
Every AAQ journey is filled with learning, challenges, and opportunities. Together, we inspire greatness in every student as we uphold our core values. Go Raptors!
Sincerely,
Dr Susan Borden
Head of School/CEO
GEMS American Academy - Qatar
