Teheran American School, TAS Community School (Persian: مدرسه كامیونیتى) was a boarding school in Tehran, Iran, originally intended for the children of Presbyterian missionaries from the United States who were stationed in Iran since the 1830s. However, it soon served expatriates of all stripes raising children while in Iran. In the late 1940s, the school moved from its original location at Saint Peter Church at Qavām os-Saltaneh Street, to a location at Kucheh Marizkhaneh (Hospital Drive) near Jaleh Street. Following the Iranian Revolution in the summer of 1979, it was permanently shut down by the new government of the Islamic Republic. It was then renamed Modarres Shahed, reserved for the children of the war veterans. The new campus had been an old Presbyterian missionary hospital during World War II where Iran's last empress, Farah Pahlavi, was born. After the war, it was returned to the missionaries to be used as the school campus and J. Richard Irvine was hired as its headmaster in 1951. The large, tree-filled shady compound had several buildings, a small church, and walking paths.
