Students in Senior High have access to multiple academic pathways, including the IB Diploma Programme (IBDP), which offers a wide range of courses emphasizing global awareness, critical thinking, and inquiry-based learning. The AP Program provides rigorous courses that prepare students for college-level study, including subjects like AP Microeconomics and Macroeconomics, AP Psychology, and AP Government and Politics. Additionally, the Regular and Elective Courses follow a US-based curriculum framework, catering to various proficiency levels and allowing students to explore specialized interests in areas such as business, marketing, psychology, and economics while fulfilling their graduation requirements. These pathways ensure that students are well-prepared for higher education and foster a deep understanding of social, economic, and political systems.
The department explores how business and economics shape global development, raising key questions such as: How can liberal economic policies reduce poverty through global trade, and how should we respond to trade restrictions from populist governments? What is the role of businesses in promoting environmental sustainability, and how can we protect endangered species and cultures as globalization spreads uniformity?
The KCIS Social Sciences Program equips students with critical thinking and problem-solving skills to tackle these global challenges, fostering informed, responsible, and ethical future leaders in business and policy.
