The roadmap is available to help parents select the most appropriate class level for their child. These are only recommendations. For course descriptions go to main menu in Elementary, Middle, or High school.
We offer primarily year-long classes in core and elective subjects along with a small number of semester-length electives. Our academic year is divided into quarters (four quarters for year-long courses; two quarters for semester-long courses), and teachers provide quarterly assessments to help students and parents understand their progress in the courses.
Should you need further assistance, please contact SAA Academic Advisor
We believe the roadmap for elementary school and foreign languages are self-explanatory, so we have only included middle and high school on this page.
