With an international-certified teaching staff, a balanced training program, and a focus on psychology, The American School (TAS) provides a high-quality educational environment, making it a reliable choice for parents and students.
"Students are at the heart of all activities. We commit to 'Beside Not Behind. We care, We share, for the future We prepare,'" affirmed the school representative.
According to the school representative, TAS follows the standards set by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), as well as emphasizing the holistic development of students' mind, body, and spirit. The school implements the American Liberal Arts Education model, but with adjustments to accommodate Vietnamese culture and people, thereby creating its own identity and unique characteristics in the educational process.
Let's explore the 7 quality standards at TAS!

The school not only carries out education through book knowledge, but also explores nature through voluntary activities, so that students can have a more comprehensive understanding of natural science and social knowledge.
Scoring is not the only scoring standard.
From kindergarten to grade two, the school does not use the general grading scale, but the teacher evaluates it through comments and gives students small gifts like smiling faces or a star. In addition, children will also take regular American standard tests, such as MAP Academic Progress Measurement (MAP Test).

From the grade 3 to Grade 12, students will learn and evaluate their grades through the scores of certain subjects, and take the ability test with American standard scores.
Don't compare students' academic performance.
The parents' meeting is organized flexibly in a 1-1 way, which reflects the attitude of attaching importance to students. This is also an opportunity for teachers in each subject to have time to talk to each parent about their study.
In these meetings, teachers only share students' personal information with their parents, not compare with others. Every student's information is absolutely confidential, so as not to hurt every child's self-esteem.
The spirit of exploration is not afraid of making mistakes.
The school has designed many practical experience curriculum, such as the Simulated Biochemical Experiment (STEAM), to reproduce the physical state. In the process of carrying out these activities, students often encounter difficulties and failures. However, teachers will encourage you to overcome challenges, and the philosophy of "success is not easy, and you are not afraid of making mistakes. What you learn from these setbacks is more core values".

Emotional management, student psychology
Educational consultants here are in frequent contact with school psychologists, which provides convenience for students to practice personal emotional management. The school provides social affective learning (SEL) from the youngest grade.
Give students the right to choose and respect individual freedom within the permitted framework.
The design of desks and chairs does not exceed 1/2 of the classroom area. Most of the space is scientifically arranged, allowing students to choose the angle of free learning or enter a large library to complete individual courses. During class, students are free to choose their rest time, read, play the piano, swim or do all their favorite activities within the permitted scope.

In addition, The American School TAS adopts a bachelor's degree in small classes. Teachers' intimacy and willingness to contact will help students share and chat easily, thus forming a bond of connection and understanding. This is also a favorable condition for improving the training quality and psychological development of each student.
