Special Academic Support

Academic support for all students is available in a variety of forms:

  • The SABIS Academic Monitoring System® (SABIS AMS®) allows student progress to be monitored closely and continuously. Thus, any remedial action, if and when needed, is tailored to the specific needs of individual students.
  • The textbooks and workbooks in the SABIS® Educational Book Series are written specifically for the courses being taken.
  • Accelerated ReadingTM Program: The adopted Accelerated ReadingTM Program runs throughout the year. Every student, at the beginning of Term 1, is given a computerized S.T.A.R. test, which is used to ascertain his/her current level. Aided by the librarian, the student then chooses a book at the specific level as indicated by the test. He/she is allowed one week to read the book, after which time the student goes to the library again and takes a multiple choice comprehension test on the book. Upon successful completion of each book, the student is awarded merit points and proceeds to the next level.
  • New students who do not meet the academic standards required for entry into regular classes are in general offered one of several possible solutions:
    • Summer School Students who are below the required academic standard may attend summer school in an effort to catch up before the beginning of the academic year. Summer school courses take place during the morning hours only.
    • Intensive Courses Intensive Courses are offered for students who have either not studied in English before or whose English and/or math is weak. This accelerated program brings students up to the required level in the shortest possible time. When the Administration considers that students are ready, they join regular classes.
    • Peer tutoring and study group sessions are provided by the the Academic Prefects of the SABIS Student Life Organization®
  • Students who begin to slip back for one reason or another may also benefit from one or more of the same support
