Our highly qualified and diverse faculty, coupled with American standards-based curricula, the IB Middle Years Programme, and the IB Diploma Programme, inspire our students to discover what drives them, to challenge themselves, and to invest in their passions.

Grade 9 at the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts This week, our Grade 9 students stepped outside the classroom and into the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts to explore Cheng Chien-chang’s Variations of Mountain and Sea Spirits exhibition. But they weren’t just there to look at art. The gallery became a live data collection site, where students observed closely, documented their findings, asked questions, and gathered primary data to strengthen their research and inquiry skills. A different kind of classroom, with plenty to observe, question, and discover. #KASDragons #Grade9 #KASLearning
