The school was founded in 1950 as a school for the children of Christian missionary families. It was originally known as Sendai American School, though it changed its name to Sendai Christian Academy and then back to Sendai American School before finally renaming itself Tohoku International School in 1997. It is currently now applying to be part of the International Baccalaureate and appears to have a musical theater programme.
