EDUCATION & CURRICULUM

SPECIAL ACADEMIC PROGRAMS

Three Campus One School Léman Manhattan together with its sister schools Collège du Léman located in Geneva, Switzerland, and Léman International School in Chengdu, China, operate as a unique consortium of schools that provide students with a truly “Three Campus, One School” experience. Students at all three schools benefit from a number of unique learning opportunities such as summer programming to perfect language skills, and Lincoln-Douglas style debates via video conferencing.

Global Opportunities for Exchange All Léman students have the opportunity to spend three weeks participating in a cultural exchange with peers at a sister Léman school. Each year a group of students meet at one of the three Léman schools to discuss contemporary issues such as poverty, global warming and ideas of gender, in order to gain a truly global perspective on important societal issues.

CURRICULUM

• International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB)

INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE DIPLOMA PROGRAMME (IB) CLASSES

By teaching to standards in a structured but student-centered environment, we empower children to carve their own paths and assume accountability for results.
