Early Childhood Program: The three core tenets of our mission: academic empowerment, excellence and diversity are reflected in the academic program here at Perkins International Academy of Excellence. In each of our three divisions, Lower (K-5), Middle (6-8) and Upper (9-12), we have created a developmentally appropriate program that is challenging, inspires a love of learning and augments the many academic and interpersonal strengths our diverse student body bring to class each day.

Lower School academic program: This provides a strong foundation of concepts and skills in the areas of reading, writing, mathematics, social studies, science, art, foreign language, library, music, physical education and technology in a supportive environment. Teachers integrate hands on activities, simulations, field trips, service learning, and multimedia projects with the academic program. Basic skills are taught in a sequential program that progresses within the grade level and across the six year Lower School program.

Middle and Upper School: Students continue to gain skills and knowledge in all of the core academic areas of English, history, science, math and world language (French, Spanish and Chinese), and have the opportunity to explore new areas in visual arts, computer science, and other electives such as debate.  Students at each grade level work with passionate teachers to gain knowledge and to expand their critical thinking through research projects, lab experiments and hands on activities.  Whether students are building their own in science or conducting a personal interview, they are using their intellectual and interpersonal skills to grow into compassionate global citizens.
