The PYP is an international curriculum framework that spans from Pre-KG to Grade 5. This framework is built upon essential elements which help to shape the overall learning experiences for your child. Central to the PYP is the conceptual lens of curriculum, which helps to drive teaching and learning of essential skills and enduring understandings.MIDDLE SCHOOL - GRADES 6 to 10

At Universal American School, we believe that Middle School is an incredibly special time in a child’s development. We provide our students equal opportunities to learn while challenging them to reach their full potential. By empowering our students with knowledge and skill, we urge them to be developmentally responsive. We encourage them to act on their ideas, pursue high levels of scholarship and become more fully realized as people and learners.HIGH SCHOOL - GRADES 11 & 12

For Grades 11 and 12 we provide an option between the IBDM and an American High School Diploma track. Lessons are focused to help students develop as independent critical-thinkers, innovative problem-solvers and life-long learners. Using Community Action and Service Programs such as Week Without Walls, we develop an awareness of global issues in our students, guiding them to their future role of global citizens.Gallery

Our students are strongly encouraged to explore interests outside the classroom curriculum. At UAS, we constantly strive to offer a wide range of engaging activities within the ASA Program. We research and select the activities, mindful of the fact that a successful ASA program should include activities that foster the overall development of children where they can explore their talent, develop leadership skills, build bonds with roles models, improve their academic performance and have fun!Athletics
