Foundation and Development
of Al-Hussan Institutes and Schools Al-Hussan Institutes and Schools were founded 43 years ago, 1377 H. (1957) in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia by Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al-Hussan. He was aware of the need and demand for a high quality education service for adults in the area, and established
the "Arab Cultural Institute" in Dammam. He also recognized the vital role women played in our society. Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al-Hussan realized that by providing opportunities for women to receive a good education, the values and morality central to Islam would become central to family life. Convinced that a solid family base is the essential foundation upon which the development of a successful nation can be built, he established the first Girl's School just a year after opening the
Arab Cultural Institute and continued his pioneering work by opening the Model Boy's School in Dammam 23 years later. Following his death, Sheikh Abdul Aziz-Al-Hussan was succeeded by his son, Mr. Rashid Al-Hussan as President of Al-Hussan Institute and Schools. Through the tireless work of the President, a modern education service has been developed, with expansion, and improvement all
taking place to ensure that the service we provide at Al-Hussan Schools and Institutes, are of the highest standards. Al-Hussan Institutes and Schools are educational leaders across the Eastern Province in terms of buildings, facilities, expertise and curriculum. They ensure that the student of today posses the knowledge and skills needed for the society of tomorrow. Under Mr. Rashid
Al-Hussan's careful guidance, our Schools and Institutes have developed an enviable reputation at the fore front of education. This reputation is not just related to schooling for boys and girls, but also encompasses the areas of commercial, foreign and language education together with training centers for men and women. Today Al-Hussan Institutes and Schools are to be found across the whole of the Eastern Province and they represent the most comprehensive, modern and widespread
educational and training facilities in the area. These "Centers of Excellence" have been created on a firm foundation of experience, the level of which, is greater and wider than any other organization in the area. Al-Hussan Institutes and Schools have a policy of insisting upon employing the most highly skilled and motivated faculty. They continue to be led by a president with the vision to provide for the educational needs for our nation.
