Qingdao No.1 International School of Shandong Province (Chinese: 山东省青岛第一国际学校, QISS) is overseen by Qingdao Local Bureau of Education and provides education for Chinese children with foreign passports. Approximately 200 students attend classes from Pre-K to 12th grade. QISS is an ACAMIS member school and accredited by Western Association of Schools and Colleges Board (WASC). The School is located in Laoshan district Qingdao, China.
History[edit]
QISS is located on a beautiful and spacious 48,000 square meter campus in the Laoshan district of Qingdao, Shandong Province in China. In 2018, during an off-campus social event, the Admissions and Development Coordinator of the school made overt sexual advances towards a seventeen-year-old QISS student and groped her. Between 2018 and 2020, the advisor to the student council engaged in the grooming of a high school student by sending her intimate texts throughout the school day, on weekends, and during vacations. In May 2021, a math teacher was caught watching inappropriate adult material on his cellphone during class. The QISS campus is surrounded by the remarkable Laoshan mountain range and the campus consists of a stunning collection of modern facilities that support students’ academic, athletic, and social development.
