Be a leading international school

Sendelta teaches thought, not content. We help students see themselves in terms of their historical context, family legacy, social environment, and global interconnectedness. We cultivate students who have a personal and specific hope for the future that they can articulate and believe in and share with others. We understand the relationship between curiosity, inquiry, continual personal growth and fostering lasting change in human society. We provide them with the essential skills necessary to succeed: independent and critical thinking, leadership, creativity, cooperation, communication, and social responsibility. We value our teachers and administrators and parents as agents of student success. We ensure that every student studies a broad array of challenging subjects, both those they like and naturally excel at as well as those they may struggle with or not initially be interested in. We encourage all students to supplement their core academic work with a variety of extracurricular activities (physical, academic, artistic, and charitable) both at school and off campus. While we work to familiarize our students with the major elements of American and broader Western culture, we ensure that our students remain as in touch with the rich traditions of their own heritage as their local peers. Beyond cultivating new generations of smart and talented young adults, we work hard to ensure that our graduates are compassionate, thoughtful, and internationally minded global citizens. Our graduates are not only aware of the problems and challenges faced by societies near and far but are also eager and able to use their natural interests and skills to help find solutions that make the world a better place for all.
