In general great atmosphere, facilities, administration and some excellent teachers , however like any school some teacher are just good and others not. It is an American curriculum that is why it is referred to as ACS, but has many international students attending. I attended this school and as atudent I liked it overall. The only drawback when I was there is that there was lack of accessible tutors to help students struggling with certain topics which very important when one has vacuums of knowledge and needs to keep up. Even tutoring workshops during breaks or after school programs are great help, especially when it hard to get private home tutors.

This school has great teachers and offer much help to students. They keep the campus clean and have many after school activities.

The name is deceiving it’s not an American school but international. Much better schools out there to pick from with better standards
