School: HIGH SCHOOL

The junior and senior high school programmes are offered in a format that makes it fully compatible with a student's sport training without undermining academic quality. The programme requires students to complete their senior year, or twelfth grade, of the American secondary education system. This system consists of four years of secondary education (ages 14-18) after two years of junior high school (ages 12-13) and six years of primary school (ages 6-11). At the conclusion of twelfth grade, students receive a High School Diploma, which affords them the possibility to enrol in universities in the United States or other countries. Spanish is offered as a required foreign language for non-native speakers.
