Last week marked our seniors’ final week of classes before they begin their IB exams—a milestone moment filled with reflection, gratitude, and excitement for what’s ahead. At KAS University Day, students proudly wore T-shirts representing the schools they’ll be heading to next year, inviting classmates and teachers to leave messages, memories, and words of encouragement. More than just a celebration of where they’re going, it was a chance to look back on the journey and thank the people who helped them get there. Class of 2026, good luck on your IB exams—we’re all cheering you on. 🎓

This week, we proudly welcomed new members into the National Honor Society ✨ NHS is more than an academic honor—it’s a commitment to Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character. These students exemplify what it means to lead with purpose, support those around them, and give back to their community. At KAS, our NHS members don’t just stand out in the classroom—they show up for others. From organizing study sessions to supporting teachers and creating spaces for student well-being, they help shape the kind of community we’re proud to be part of. Congratulations to our latest inductees! #KAS #NationalHonorSociety

BACK TO ANCIENT ROME 🏛️ Our elementary school students stepped back in time for an immersive Roman Camp experience! As part of their Ancient Civilizations Unit, they explored what life was like in Ancient Rome—right from their own classroom. Supported by the LARP 宗親會 team, students dressed the part in tunics, helmets, and shields as they explored Roman daily life and tactics through interactive activities and group formations like the well-known “testudo.” Experiences like this bring history off the page and make learning stick in a whole new way. #高雄美國學校
