Our Mission<\/h5>\n

Mission and Vision<\/h2>\n

Our mission is to prepare students in mind, body, and spirit to meet the challenges of the world around them. As such, the school continues to share the spiritual concerns of its founders. We seek to promote the love of God in all we do, to liberate the mind and soul from the bondage of ignorance and fear. Our task as a learning community is to help students flourish socially, spiritually, and academically.<\/p>\n

In John 8:32, Jesus tells us: \u201cYou shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free.\u201d In some ways, this is the bedrock of a solid education: discovering the truth.<\/p>\n

We build our community\u2014our curriculum, our interactions with students and family, our staff relations\u2014on this value, the value of truth. It\u2019s one of the principles that set us apart.<\/p>\n

A Message From<\/h5>\n

Head of Middle School<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Middle School, with close to 300 students, is a three-year cycle covering grades 7 through 9. It offers two programs: the Lebanese Program, preparing students for the official Lebanese Brevet examination; the High School Program, which is an English medium non-Brevet program that prepares the students for the High School diploma. All programs require the teaching of Arabic, English, French, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Physical Education, Information Technology (IT).<\/p>\n

The Lebanese Program is available to everyone, but only foreign students or Lebanese students who have lived abroad for at least three years or who carry a second nationality may join the High School Program. These students must obtain an exemption from joining the Lebanese program from the Lebanese Ministry of Education where they will also obtain an equivalency indicating which grade they are qualified to join.<\/p>\n

We are here to guide our early adolescents through three exciting years of challenge and development and to prepare them to be independent, knowledgeable thinkers who are able to succeed with the dynamic academic courses ahead of them. The Middle School team achieves this by providing a wide range of challenging programs, by giving a variety of opportunities to explore, discover and develop individual activities and by nurturing each student emotionally, spiritually and physically.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Alice Azar Wazir
Head of Division \u2013 Middle School<\/p>\n
