Teacher in Business Economics and Law

About the American High SchoolThe American High School was founded based on a strong pedagogical idea. Our guiding star is that “we work for our students and staff to reach their full potential.” Therefore, we work with both knowledge development and personal development. Our culture is characterized by clear rules of conduct with care. We call it “Frames and Hugs.” The school operations are organized so that students are prepared for an international labor market in a rapidly changing world, which is why our logo reads “Get ready for the world.”

Everything that happens at the school is based on our four core values: Courage, Kindness, Knowledge & Curiosity, and Grit. In classrooms and corridors, interactions between students and staff are characterized by behaviors derived from these values. We work closely with students and always prioritize their best interests.

About the American High School, Stockholm - Campus Frescati Hage

By Brunnsviken in the picturesque Norra Djurgårdsstaden, we started a high school in the autumn of 2023. The school is now in its second academic year and has approximately 270 students studying in the Natural Science, Economics, or Social Science programs. In the autumn, the school will grow further, and we will then have about 450 students. The teaching is conducted in both English and Swedish by a competent teaching staff with a strong sense of community.
