HIGH SCHOOL
SANTO DOMINGO
The high school academic program is fully bilingual, taught in English and Spanish, enabling our students to achieve a high level of fluency in both languages. The subjects taught in our general curriculum include: Language, Literature, Mathematics, History, Geography, Microeconomics, Science, and Art. We also offer students the opportunity to take college-level courses (Advanced Placement), the content and development of which are based on the guidelines of the U.S. College Board. These courses can be credited at universities in more than 100 countries worldwide.
In addition to the regular course offerings and advanced courses, students have the opportunity to participate in extracurricular activities, join clubs, participate in sports activities, and take elective courses such as Photography, Radio, Journalism, Creative Writing, Drama, Nutrition, Film, and Youth Choir.
