Since its founding in 1950, The American School of Tangier has exemplified cultural diversity, open-mindedness and harmony between nationalities and backgrounds, and an enlightened education program. From a small house in the Marshan, the school moved to larger buildings downtown, before being purpose-built on its present location in Iberia across from the Spanish Consulate. Over the years, buildings, programs, and sports facilities have been added making the school a blend of old and new. The natural beauty of its 15-acre campus is integral to life at AST making it one of a kind, and an oasis, in Tangier and Morocco.

Although originally conceived as a school for the children of expats, by the 1970’s the school’s families were mostly Moroccan. Even so, the school continued to maintain its connection with European and American luminaries such as Paul Bowles, Tennessee Williams, William Burroughs, Bruce Webber, French designer Yves Saint-Laurent, Chilean painter Claudio Bravo, and American painter Marguerite McBey, Pierre Berge, and director and choreographer Robert Ashford, all of whom at one time or another worked with AST students.
