Academics

Greetings,

Staff, students, and parents at UAS are engaged in a dynamic learning community where the academic program is richly supplemented by Athletics, Visual and Performing Arts activities, leadership activities, Model United Nations, Student Council, and cultural events that ensure we are defined, not divided, by the differences represented by the seventy plus nationalities in our school.

UAS is fully accredited by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO), the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSA), and the Council of International Schools (CIS). The curriculum in grades 7-10 prepares students for the highly academic UAS High School Diploma culminating in IB courses in Grades 11 and 12, and the full IB Diploma recognized for its exceptional standards that meet university entrance requirements world-wide. The Conceptual Curriculum stresses inquiry-based learning and incorporates the US Common Core standards. As a young and vibrant school we continually assess the quality and rigor of our programs and the commitments we all share to ensure the best possible success for all students.

UAS provides a challenging, inquiry-based American and international education that empowers students to be caring individuals, critical thinkers, and responsible global citizens.

We welcome you to UAS and look forward to building many strong relationships throughout the year.

Sincerely,

Dr. Gunther Brandt

Director
