Mission Statement
The International American School of Cancun is an independent U.S. style secondary school, offering a program of academic excellence in a bilingual, multinational setting to qualified secondary students. We provide a caring and stimulating environment which fosters a lifelong enthusiasm for learning and prepares our students to become responsible citizens in a rapidly changing world.
Unique Dual Academic Program
The majority of our students are enrolled in a dual program, receiving both U.S. and Mexican diplomas. Thus the majority of our students speak both English and Spanish.
Beliefs:
- Each student is a valued individual with unique intellectual, physical, social and emotional needs.
- Students learn in different ways and should be provided with a variety of instructional approaches to support their learning.
- Education is a cooperative process to be shared by students, staff and community. The educational programs should recognize the role of the school, working with home and community, in the moral, physical, emotional and aesthetic development of students.
- An ambience of respect and appreciation for all cultures should be evident in all aspects of the curriculum and learning environment.
- The school should meet the standards and characteristics expected by SACS and the Mexican educational authorities, offering a curriculum that prepares students to be successful in the best US, Mexican and international universities.
- The program should prepare students to integrate successfully and constructively as productive, conscientious citizens in a rapidly changing world.
- The school should maintain an educational environment that is stimulating and challenging and encourages interaction and response by the student both on individual and group levels.
- Opportunities for learning and growth should be provided outside the classroom.
- Ongoing staff development is a major priority.
- The school should maintain an optimal student/teacher ratio.
- The commitment to continuous improvement is imperative if our school is going to enable students to become confident, self-directed, lifelong learners.
