In 1945, 4 organizations came together to found an international school in Cairo.  These were The American University in Cairo, Socony Vacuum Company, NAMRU-3, and The United States Embassy. These 4 organizations continue to guide the school by appointing representatives who sit on the Board of Trustees.

In the fall of 1945, fifty students enrolled in grades one through eight at The Cairo School for American Children and began attending classes in a rented, three-story, vine covered villa located at 36 Road 7 in Maadi. Fourteen high school students were admitted at the beginning of second academic year when the high school curriculum was added. Two students graduated from the high school in 1947 and four graduated in 1948 in the fall of 1948 The Cairo School for American Children became the Cairo American School. This name would continue until 1955. Today’s Cairo American College evolved directly from this institution.
