Curriculum
Overview

SIS offers a
curriculum based on current practices and trends in Western countries
with adjustments to meet the unique situations of students overseas. The
core curriculum areas are covered in self-contained classrooms with some
degree of departmentalization as appropriate for the older students. Shekou International School
is the only school in the Shenzhen area that is fully accredited by Western Association of
Schools and Colleges (WASC). SIS completed its WASC midterm review

SIS's mission is furthered through the
continuous efforts of the faculty to work toward the stated core goals. SIS
teachers recognize the importance of laying a solid foundation for later
success. As the students are in the process of developing enduring
attitudes about themselves and the world, the SIS curriculum helps them
develop a pride that comes from a variety of accomplishments; a sense of
joy in learning that comes from meaningful, rich experiences; and a growing
ability to be responsible for themselves and others.
