At TAS, Middle School students are immersed in global topics and values-based education to become responsible, empathetic, and informed world citizens.

Global Awareness Starts Early

In an interconnected world, knowledge alone is not enough. Today’s students must be prepared to think globally, act responsibly, and engage with real-world issues. At The American School (TAS), this journey starts in Middle School through meaningful global citizenship education.

From Grade 6, students at TAS are introduced to the subject of “Global Citizenship,” where they actively explore pressing global issues: climate change, human rights, gender equality, education access, social media responsibility, and more. Through classroom discussions, case studies, and student-led projects, learners develop a deeper understanding of the world around them.

Critical Thinking with Compassion

Students aren’t just passive recipients of information—they are taught to ask questions, examine causes and effects, and propose thoughtful solutions. Teachers act as facilitators, creating a respectful space for all voices and encouraging students to speak up, listen actively, and engage respectfully.

This approach not only strengthens academic skills like reasoning and communication but also nurtures empathy, confidence, and civic responsibility—qualities every global citizen needs.

Character Education Woven into Learning

At TAS, character development is not a side note—it’s a core part of the educational philosophy. Ethical thinking, emotional intelligence, and kindness are emphasized across all subjects and co-curricular activities.

Through community projects, volunteering opportunities, and peer support initiatives, students learn that being a good student also means being a good human. These experiences become a powerful complement to the academic preparation for programs like IB and AP.

Leading with Head and Heart

Global citizenship isn’t a faraway goal—it’s something built day by day. TAS Middle School empowers students to understand themselves, others, and the world, preparing them to lead with both knowledge and compassion.
