Secondary education in America.

From the very beginning, US private schools stood apart among educational institutions. They did not depend on anyone, had an original view of education and unique teaching methods.

• Rigidly selected teaching staff

• Personal curator assigned to each child

• Well-equipped classrooms and activity areas (laboratories, computer and design studios, indoor and outdoor sports fields, libraries, creative workshops, swimming pools, printing houses and much more)

• Large selection of optional subjects

• Mandatory participation in extracurricular activities (sports, music, art, journalism circles, acting, science clubs)

• Enhanced university preparation

However, they are all different from each other, each strives to become a unique educational institution and give something special.
