The school ensures a happy and connected environment to support students' holistic development, both mentally and physically.

Comprehensive educational programs:
A combination of the Vietnamese Ministry of Education and Training's standard curriculum with international programs based on CCSS (Common Core State Standards) and NGSS (Next Generation Science Standards); these are two sets of common standards regarding the knowledge and skills Students should achieve, currently being applied in many US states.
Furthermore, through the integration of STEM subjects, arts and practical experiential activities, Students are equipped not only with academic knowledge but also develop creative thinking, practical skills and global integration capabilities. In particular, learning projects and extracurricular activities are designed to both train soft skills and nurture humanistic values, contributing to the formation of global citizens responsible to the community.
