Our History
The beginning
Jason & Linda Carpenter and Lee Erin Jones founded Acacia International School with encouragement and support from the wider missionary community in Kampala. Africa Inland Mission, MAF, IMB, Sojourn and Engineering Ministry International missionaries lent early support to the project along with friends and colleagues. Leaders from Kampala International Church also offered tremendous support to the fledgling school. It all started in August 2012 at the current Junior School campus.
