With multiple international options like IB, Cambridge, and U.S. standards, TAS offers a balanced Middle School program with a clear academic pathway, competitive tuition, and strong university preparation.

Choosing a Middle School Means Choosing a Long-Term Path

Selecting an international Middle School is more than choosing a school—it’s choosing an academic direction. With so many programs available (IB, Cambridge, U.S.), parents need to consider long-term goals, learning styles, and university aspirations.

Three Popular Middle School Programs in Ho Chi Minh City

Currently, international schools in HCMC offer options like:

  • IB MYP (Middle Years Programme)

  • Cambridge Lower Secondary

  • U.S. Curriculum (Common Core + AP pathway)

At TAS, the U.S.-based program is designed with a clear progression from Middle to High School, seamlessly preparing students for Advanced Placement (AP), SAT, ACT, and college applications—ideal for families targeting the U.S., Canada, or the U.K.

TAS: Clear Roadmap, Competitive Tuition

The American School (TAS) delivers a U.S. Common Core curriculum with small class sizes, experienced international teachers, personalized learning, and a multicultural student community.

Unlike many schools in the same tier, TAS maintains competitive tuition while offering high-quality academics, robust facilities, and strong student support. Students are guided throughout their transition to High School and coached early on for college readiness.
