Founded in 1956 by Mrs. M. Crist Fleming, the school is owned and directed by the TASIS Foundation, a Swiss non-profit educational organization.
The school is situated on a magnificent 9-acre campus of 17 buildings near the village of Montagnola overlooking Lake Lugano and just 15 minutes from the centre of town. The facilities include a combination of historic villas beautifully restored for school use, and modern purpose-built facilities.
The college preparatory academic programme allows students to earn the American and International Baccalaureate diplomas. The travel programme includes 10 days of educational travel throughout Europe as well as a one-week ski term, when the school relocates to Crans-Montana.
