  • In 1930, the American Indian became the AS symbol. Just following the Christmas holidays of 1936, the school moved this time to some campus on Donada Road.
  • In Manila, Japanese troops arrived on January 2, 1942. All citizens of the Allied nations were interned in the University of Sto. Tomas. Classes were organized by heads of schools that were numerous inside the internment camp and these ran until 1945. A total of thirty-four students completed their High-School needs and graduated during WWII. In September 1946, precisely one year following the Japanese surrendered in Manila, the American College reopened at Donada Avenue.
  • The American School changed its name to International School Manila in the advice of the US Embassy to mirror the expanding student diversity on campus. To the High School curriculum, the International Baccalaureate Program was released in 1976.
  • In 1982, ISM joined the Interscholastic Association of Southeast Asia Schools (IASAS).
  • 1994 marked the last year of the image that was Indian. The Bearcat was declared as the official mascot starting SY 1995 1996. In 1999, the present globe logo was launched as the official emblem, replacing the Indian insignia.
  • In 2002, after forty years in the Bel-Air campus, International School Manila moved to some purpose-built, state-of-the-art campus on a 7-hectare site in Bonifacio Global City. Using a growing international community of over 2,266 students, ISM Celebrated 9-5 years in 2015.
