The program also includes newly announced courses like Economics, Qatar History, Business Studies and Values Education. Early childhood care is consistent with the overall development of a preschooler, with teaching focused on the KG student needs. The American curriculum covers all lessons/materials in depth and MIS, being a college-preparatory school, prepares the student comprehensively, leading to a high school diploma upon completion of grade 12. MIS does take into consideration the textbooks and supplementary educational materials from American publishers. It believes that the core curriculum should be the best. Extra-curricular activities in athletics and clubs, social and educational aspects also add to the growth of every learning child in school. |
