The International Education Center is made up of the Twin Cities International Elementary School (grades k-4), the Minnesota International Middle School (grades 5-7) and the Ubah Medical Academy. It opened its doors in the fall of 2001. Founded by educational leaders in the East African community, the center strives to provide a quality academic program, in a culturally sensitive setting, for immigrant and refugee children. The school's program features best-practice English as a Second Language (ESL) instruction.

Two co-directors, Abdirashid Warsame and Helen Fisk, are the chief administrators at the school. This shared leadership model allows the school to offer the best possible American academic program in a setting that respects and values community input.
