SAS will turn your kids ghey. "Not that there's anything wrong with that" in the words of Seinfeld.

/s
I would put SAS about as far left liberal as it gets, and all of the nonsense that comes with that, critical race theory, indoctrination, etc, etc.

LGBT is openly promoted, along with the idea of identifying as x, y or z… they even teach zim/zer pronouns… and test you on it.

ICS seems like a very religious school?

It depends what you are comparing it to.

ICS is going to be far more religious than any church affiliated local schools in Singapore — for example, my daughter went through St. Margaret’s & St. Nick’s, and there was practically no religious teaching whatsoever.

However, compared to many parochial schools in the U.S. (which I have first hand experience with), it’s not going to be as heavy or emphasized.

A lot of secular folks see religions as cults and think every church is out for money and/or not safe for kids. It’s unfortunate that a few rotten apples can create these widespread perceptions. But, that is how media works these days.

The 'C' stands for 'Christian'.

Gahmen wouldn't allow them to use it tho so it became "Community".

It's "Christian lite". Multi denominational.

Interesting. I thought they had chosen the word “Community” the way Baptists do, as a way to appear more inviting to common folks.

They use the C word in other locations and they are part of NICS where the C is "Christian" (Network of International Schools). Joe Hale ran it as a boondoggle for years. He was charging out the arse for the schools to be part of NICS which gave nothing back.
