Education in the US

The decision to send your child to a school in the US for a year or more is not an easy or simple one; however, it can be extremely important for their education and career. As a parent, you want to choose a school that will provide your child with knowledge for the future and an experience that will enable them to be successful both academically and professionally in a global environment. Also, because your child will live away from home, you want them to be in the best and safest environment where they feel at home and can easily adapt to a new way of living and learning.

You will get all this and much more at Allison Academy. What sets our school apart is a modern approach tailored to the individual needs of each student, small classes and cultural diversity.

Apart from the curricular activities, we encourage our students to develop their own ideas through research and projects. While developing these skills, the students cope better with the workload at university, as they learn how to manage time, where to access information, and how to successfully complete tasks by analyzing and synthesizing them.

At Allison Academy, the classes are small which provides the students more one on one time with their teachers. It also allows teachers the opportunity to develop each student’s educational needs, it fosters team spirit, allows for group projects and encourages the students to establish and maintain friendships.

Every theoretical element of a lesson has its practical application which strengthens the students’ acquisition of knowledge. In addition to the traditional classroom lessons, students are also granted access to our modern learning environment.

Our teachers gladly organize extended learning sessions for students in order to help them nurture their talents. For those who are competitive, the school facilitates participation in various competitions, both locally and regionally.

Although it is our goal to completely cover the curriculum during school hours, it is possible that the international students could have questions, a lack of understanding about a certain topic, or simply difficulty with a particular subject. For any additional help that the students may need, they will have the opportunity to meet with their teachers after school hours.

We put forth a lot of effort in creating a healthy and inspiring environment at our school. These conditions allow our students to succeed. Apart from our professional teaching staff and safe environment we encourage our students to be polite, to use manners and appropriate language. The extracurricular life at school consists of various clubs, cultural and sporting events, charity fundraisers, group projects, etc.
