Thai Sikh International School (TSIS) is an international school in Samrong, Mueang Samut Prakan District, Samut Prakan Province, Thailand in the Bangkok Metropolitan Area. The school is partially funded by the Thai Sikh Foundation in Pahurat, Phra Nakhon District, Bangkok. Because it is a voluntary aided school, as of 2004, it charges school tuition rates that are among the lowest in Thailand.

Contents

The school has two branches, one located at Samut Prakan in the outskirts of Bangkok and the other in Bang Na. One is a seniors' campus and the other is a juniors' campus.

The school has facilities such as a swimming pool, basketball and tennis courts as well as a 400-metre running track around a football field.

As of 2004, there are about 400 students. Most of the students are of Indian descent. About half of the students are Sikhs, while other students follow other religions, including Hinduism, Islam, and Christianity.
