Kolej Islam Sultan Alam Shah (English: Sultan Alam Shah Islamic College; abbreviated KISAS; formerly known as Kolej Islam Klang) is an Islamic boarding school in Klang, Selangor. It was bestowed the title Sekolah Berprestasi Tinggi (High Performing School) in 2010 by the Ministry Of Education.[1] Among others, the school is noted for its Silat and Nasheed teams.[2] The school has also played host for bench marking visits on areas such as Arabic Language, Public Speaking and Silat. In the 2013 Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM), the school obtained GPS of 1.27.[3]
History[edit]
Islamic College of Malaya (Malay: Kolej Islam Malaya, KIM) was founded in 1955 (1374 AH).[4] KIM was built on a plot of land measuring approximately 14.3 acres located at Jalan Kota Raja, about half a mile from Klang.
The college originated as a palace, later donated by Sultan Hisamuddin Alam Shah Al-Haj, hoping that it would give birth to scholars who follow Allah's guidance, illuminating society with the spirit of Islam and to eliminate every form of injustice and ignorance.
In 1966 (1386 AH), the college moved to a new building in Petaling Jaya (the current International Islamic University Malaysia Centre for Foundation Studies) and Bangi (the current National University of Malaysia Faculty of Islamic Studies), yet still continued its preparation courses in Klang.
In 1967, the college, taken by the Ministry of Education was converted into a government-aided school known as Klang Islamic College (Malay: Kolej Islam Klang, KIK).[citation needed] Finally, in 1972, it was turned into a fully residential school with great facilities until today.
In 1989, KIK was renamed Sultan Alam Shah Islamic College (Malay: Kolej Islam Sultan Alam Shah, KISAS) by Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah al-Haj. Until now, the former Sultan's palace is still standing.
KISAS was recognised as a Cluster School[5][6] in 2007 and as a High-Performing School in 2010.[7]
