High School
The High School Department, covering Grades 10 to 12, is committed to preparing students for higher education and future careers through a rigorous academic program that balances knowledge, skills, and personal development. Students are divided into two academic pathways—the Lebanese and American systems—based on their individual needs and ministry of education and higher education (MEHE) requirements. However, both systems share the same overarching goals: academic excellence, university readiness, and global citizenship.
Students in the Lebanese system follow the official Lebanese Baccalaureate program, which provides a structured and rigorous curriculum in sciences, humanities, and mathematics, preparing them for success in national and international universities. Meanwhile, students in the American system benefit from a flexible curriculum that emphasizes critical thinking, research, and innovation.
Regardless of the chosen pathway, all high school students are prepared for standardized tests such as the SAT, which plays a key role in university admissions. Students in the Lebanese system sit for the official Lebanese Baccalaureate exams, while those in the American system may take additional standardized assessments depending on their university goals.
Beyond academics, our high school program fosters leadership, global awareness, and university preparation. Through community service initiatives, students develop a sense of social responsibility, while university orientation programs, career counseling, and mentorship sessions help them make informed decisions about their future. Additionally, students engage in extracurricular activities, internships, and leadership roles, ensuring they graduate as well-rounded individuals ready to thrive in a rapidly evolving world.
With a dedicated team of educators and a strong commitment to excellence, the High School Department ensures that every student, regardless of their chosen academic path, is fully prepared for university and future career success.
