GISS Academics
Curriculum Overview
(GISS) is a Pre-K through Grade 12 international American school, opening in the 2025–26 academic year with classes from Pre-K to Grade 8. Our progressive, student-centered program is grounded in the International Early Years Curriculum, the International Primary Curriculum, and the International Middle Years Curriculum—a connected learning journey that will ultimately lead to a U.S. High School Diploma.
At GISS, learning isn’t passive—it’s purposeful and personal. Our students are not passengers on a set route; they are in the driver’s seat of their education. With guidance from expert educators, they navigate their learning with curiosity and clarity, understanding where they are headed and reflecting on how they are growing along the way. Through Socratic discussions, cross-disciplinary projects, and opportunities for real-world problem-solving, GISS students build the self-confidence, independence, and critical thinking skills to shape their future.
