In addition to English, Arabic, Islamic Studies and Math, our middle and upper school students study ICT, Economics, Social Studies and the Sciences, including Chemistry, Physics and Biology. The school has adopted a continuous assessment strategy at all levels, which is based on the domains, strands and topics of the Ohio curriculum and employ sets of 'Can Do' statements by which teachers can assess students' progress and attainment. Project-based learning is utilized in the middle and upper school in order to enhance students' 21st Century skills and to prepare them for professional and academic careers once they graduate. A new school building was opened at the start of the 2014 academic year in order to accommodate the increasing number of students. The building includes 24 new classrooms and caters for KG and Primary classes. Like the middle and upper school, these classrooms are fully equipped with smartboards, computers and iPads. The new building provides young learners with a vibrant and colorful learning environment that includes a library, a swimming pool, an art room and two recreation rooms.
