About American High School

American High School was founded on a strong pedagogical philosophy. Our guiding star is that "we work so that our students and employees reach their full potential." Therefore, we work with both knowledge development and personal development. Our culture is characterized by clear rules 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; in our logo, you can therefore read “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 put the students' best interests first.

Teaching is conducted in both English and Swedish by a competent teaching staff with a strong sense of community.
