EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
 
Kikokushijo Academy International School strives to create a learning environment and educational community centered around the individual. We implore our students daily to create, on an academic, physical, social, and creative basis, as we believe that this creation is the root of both educational and personal growth. We incorporate this philosophy into our school by creating an environment and curriculum in which students themselves control many aspects of their learning environment under the mentorship of our teachers, choose their own electives, work at their own pace, undertake multi-term projects, and take responsibility for their education.
