STEM-focused Curriculum for Grades 5-12:

To ensure we educate students to the highest international standards, we teach a robust, accelerated, liberal arts and STEM-focused curriculum that includes classes in:

- Math
- Science
- English
- Foreign Languages
- Logic
- Economics
- Fine Arts
- Music
- Drama
- Engineering
- World History

English Language Skills:
We recognize that a thorough knowledge of grammar is necessary for good writing - perhaps the most vital of basic skills, no matter what one prefers to study, and a notion that builds critical-thinking and problem-solving skills.

Math Curriculum:
A spiraling math curriculum not only introduces higher level content earlier in the student's academic experience, but ensures true mastery as concepts are regularly revisited as more complex material is taught.

Science Curriculum:
Similar to the best school systems in Europe and Asia, we break down the hard sciences to their essential elements in Middle School: chemistry, physics, and biology; allowing students to learn science effectively and reach deeper scientific understanding in the High School years and beyond.

Foreign Languages:
To navigate a global world, foreign language skills are of fundamental importance - starting in kindergarten, students are required to take Mandarin. In the Middle School years children can continue with their studies in Mandarin or pick another language to study.
