Intellectual Curiosity, Student Engagement, and a Compassionate Community form the foundation of our human-centered approach to learning.
In this era of pervasive social media and technology, human interaction and connection are more important than ever. At ACS, we dedicate time and space to fostering genuine engagement, whether it is between teachers and students in our small classroom settings or between the students themselves as they sit around the Harkness table or work collaboratively on student-led initiatives.

Head of School
Curiosity Fuels Learning
Curious students want to learn. They delve deeper, ask questions, and step out of their comfort zone. And when that happens, they unlock their full academic and intellectual potential. Our supportive learning community and unique programming help our students develop these vitally important qualities. To learn more about the power of curiosity, check out our rollout of

Empowerment Fosters Engagement
We ask a lot from our students. We ask them to think deeply and creatively, to develop new ideas, and to assume the lead in implementing them. In fact, many of our most celebrated programs, such as
LEBMUN
,
Nour International
, and
TEDx
, are student initiatives managed by our student leaders. Empowerment creates a vibrant and engaged community of learners that believes in its ability to effect positive change in their community and the world.
Compassion Builds Community
At ACS, “community” means many things. It begins with our community of students, faculty, staff, and parents. And it extends outward to our neighborhood of Manara, our city of Beirut, the country of Lebanon, and the greater world. From Early Childhood through High School we look for ways to strengthen our community through camaraderie mixed with fun and compassion combined with action. To discover more, click on
