  • Extracurricular activities. The school club culture in the United States is highly developed. The better the school, the more extracurricular activities it has to offer. Children play in orchestras and theatrical performances, practice vocals, photography and participate in competitions.

From 14 to 18 years old, students attend  school, where they prepare for college or university. In high school, students choose almost all subjects independently, following their interests and plans.

  • International Baccalaureate is an international program that gives you the opportunity to enter a university in any English-speaking country.
  • Advanced Placement Program - an additional school course, which is designed for grade 13. All subjects are taught at the university level, and often this program provides many advantages for admission, including the opportunity to immediately enter the second year of the university.

During the last 2 years of high school, students are preparing for the final SAT testing, based on the results of which they are admitted to college, and, if desired, attend advanced courses in some of the subjects - Advanced Placement (AP). The AP program, as a rule, corresponds to the program of the first year of study at the university, so after admission, the university can count this course as already completed.
