We offer the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program in grades 11 and 12, as well as the American High School Diploma and a selection of Advanced Placement examinations.
Co-educational Day & Boarding Programs for Students Ages 14-19: Our academic program combines what is best in the American High School and European educational traditions. Informed by the standards and performance outcomes of the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program, the 4 year program of studies leading to the American High School Diploma balances a broad exposure to the 6 major academic disciplines.
Major subject areas: - English language and literature - History - Modern languages - Mathematics (courses range from algebra to calculus honors), - Science - The Arts
The 39-week school year is divided into two semesters, with examinations at mid-term and end of year. All courses meet 4 times per week (3 x 45' plus 1 x 90' periods) and classes enrol 10 -18 students, permitting individual attention and personalized teacher-student interaction. Tutorials in specific subject areas and/or study skills are available upon request, and English as a Second Language support is provided for those students who need it.
In addition, non-credit sports and a service project are yearly requirements, while graduating seniors must submit a research paper and pass a computer proficiency test. Additionally, IB Diploma candidates are required to follow a Theory of Knowledge course in grades 11 through 12.
While 85% of upperclassmen are IB Diploma candidates, a limited number of Advanced Placement examinations are offered beyond the regular program requirements, primarily to accommodate the needs of visiting semester/year abroad students. A post-graduate cultural enrichment program is available as a boarding.
