The American School of Marrakesh (ASM) is a not-for-profit, independent school in Marrakech, Morocco. It offers classes from kindergarten through 12th grade.

The American School of Marrakesh was founded in 1995 by Joseph A. McPhillips III, Head of School at the American School of Tangier for thirty-five years. Starting as a branch of the American School of Tangier, which had been in existence since 1950, the American School of Marrakesh was intended by Mr. McPhillips and his board of trustees to be a model institution that integrated the best practices of an American education with the values and traditions of the Kingdom of Morocco.^[1]

Designed by Charles Boccara and landscaped by Madison Cox, the present school facility is a tribute to the enduring nature of a school founded by Mr. McPhillips and nurtured into successful pre-eminence in Marrakech by the combined efforts of teachers, parents, staff, administrators, board members, and friends of the school.^[1]

Under the early guidance of Mr. McPhillips and Mrs. Audrey Riffi, the school opened its doors in rented facilities in a villa with two teachers. It moved into its present purpose-built facility in stages. The Lower School opened on September 15, 2001, and the Upper School opened on March 27, 2002. The school added grades each year and, led by Head of School Mr. Josh Shoemake, graduated its first senior class in 2008.^[1]

An independent private institution located on the outskirts of Marrakech, Morocco, ASM offers English-language, American-system education from kindergarten through 12th grade. The school follows AERO standards (American Education Reaches Out) from grades 1 to 10 and offers the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IBDP) during grades 11 and 12. ASM is fully accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. Students must take four years of math, four years of English, four years of History, and four years of Science in order to graduate. Arabic is offered in Grades K-12 while French is introduced in Grade 2. Both languages are considered core curriculum classes that all students are required to take. To accommodate students who join the school with little to no French or Arabic, the school offers several levels: Advanced, Standard, and Arabic/French for beginners.^[2]
