  The Defining Years - High School
 
Key Stage - Grades nine to twelve (children from approx 14-18 years of age)
At CIS, we believe that a student who is encouraged and motivated to view learning as a lifelong and exciting process, has attained a high level of academic skills and understandings, demonstrates positive social and cultural values will be equipped to meet the future educational challenges that they will face.

We understand and support the development and growth that our students are experiencing physically, socially, emotionally and academically. The Husky Paw is a diagrammatic representation of our understanding of the continuum of students learning. Each digit of the paw represents one of these key stages of learning.

This final stage in our programme prepares our students for success in post secondary education and life as an adult. The emphasis for learning and discovery is placed on self exploration and emphasizes personal responsibility, organization, and time management. These students are the leaders and role models within our school's student body. With teacher support they organize large scale events for others students and the wider community.

Our programme aims at developing healthy, well balanced, and principled young adults. The rigorous curriculum offers opportunities to explore subjects in depth in preparation for success in universities and colleges. A strong emphasis is placed on critical thinking and develops the ability to appropriately and expertly question established norms and values while developing and questioning our own positions as well. Students are leaders in their own learning, exploring knowledge and reflecting on their context within a specific situation and within the world as a whole. This is a time of independence, leadership and service.

The Canadian International School offers grade 9, 10, 11 and 12 programmes at the Jurong East Campus. Grade 9 is offered at the Tanjong Katong Campus in 2010/2011 with Grade 10 being offered the following school year.
