Middle School Department
Children are immersed in an English environment and learn the language naturally through daily encounters and living. American Academy School (AAS) provides a comprehensive, well-balanced program and all classes are conducted in English.
The school has curriculum programs which are directed towards creating a challenging learning environment that encourages high expectations for success through development-appropriate instruction that allows for individual differences and learning styles. It uses innovative techniques to enhance lifelong learning through technology, the multiple intelligences, varied instructional strategies, and interdisciplinary units. The learning results are then implemented into the cultural background to nurture growth, responsibility, and productivity by celebrating our diversity within a positive school-wide atmosphere and by promoting sportsmanship, school spirit, and pride through our daily studies and our educational accomplishments.

In this level the teacher introduces the child to concepts, which later contribute to an advanced extension in higher grades. It is when students enter into this new phase in life and is exposed to new ideas and scenarios. Middle school teachers educate students in sixth to eighth grades. In order for effective contribution to our learning standards, our middle school teachers help students build on the fundamentals they learned in elementary school and prepare them for a more advanced curriculum they will face in high school.
