School-wide Learning Objectives

Learner-centered education

Our school's self-directed learning courses revolve around future trends in education. We have developed a curriculum that focuses on project-based learning and emphasizes problem-solving and hands-on learning processes. We are committed to the educational principles of WASC (Western Association of Schools and Colleges) and aim to cultivate a student image that embodies cooperation, communication, creativity, critical thinking, and self-awareness.
