American School of The Hague
Wassenaar, Netherlands
Welcome to American School of The Hague, or “ASH” as it has been known for over fifty years. ASH offers a learner-centered, American curriculum modified for the needs of our international student and parent population.
Our mission speaks for itself: “American School of The Hague nurtures and inspires character, commitment, creativity, and learning.” These are not just platitudes; they represent the filter through which all of us connected with the school, from the Trustees on down, process every decision we make.
Our student body is approximately 26% US and 12% Dutch, with the remaining 62% coming from 74 other nationalities, mirroring the diversity of cultures that make The Hague such a rich environment. Our students come mainly from the international business and diplomatic community, but our many Dutch families add a host country flavor to our multicultural mix.
