Our goal is to cultivate critical thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills essential for success in higher education and beyond.
Advanced Placement (AP) Courses
RAS offers a robust selection of Advanced Placement (AP) courses designed by the U.S. College Board. These college-level courses allow students to earn university credits while still in high school, giving them a competitive edge in college admissions. AP courses also provide rigorous academic challenges that prepare students for the demands of university-level studies.
International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP)
In addition to AP courses, RAS offers the prestigious International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP). The IBDP is a rigorous pre-university course of study that meets the needs of highly motivated students. It encourages students to be knowledgeable, inquiring, caring, and compassionate, emphasizing intercultural understanding and respect. The IBDP curriculum covers six subject groups and includes unique elements such as the Theory of Knowledge (TOK), the Extended Essay (EE), and Creativity, Activity, and Service (CAS), which foster research, reflection, and community engagement skills.
Guidance and Support
Starting in Grade 10, students collaborate with a High School Guidance Counselor to select courses that align with potential university requirements. This guidance ensures that students are well-prepared for the application process and meet the specific admission criteria of their chosen institutions.
Global Opportunities
Graduating from RAS is a passport to universities worldwide. Our comprehensive curriculum, personalized support, and rigorous academic standards ensure students have the knowledge, skills, and credentials to enter prestigious universities globally.
