Abundant Electives 

人文艺术类课程

Humanities & Arts Courses 

首先可供选择的有历史与电影、中国哲学、古籍选读、国画、书画、篆刻、陶艺、原创英文音乐剧等人文艺术类课程。Rita老师的课程将历史与电影进行了精妙的结合,让原先对历史无感的同学们都跃跃欲试,准备迈开他们进入历史世界的第一步;王伟老师的《中国哲学》课程致力于研究中华瑰宝《易经》,对中华传统文化进行深度地探索,鼓励同学们在探索中发表自己的见解,一同感受中华智慧的结晶;蒋老师的《陶艺课》带领同学们学习陶瓷艺术的历史,并动手完成简单的陶艺制作。在这类课程中,老师们用更加有趣的方式为同学们开拓视野,增加知识储备,感悟文化魅力,培养人文与艺术素养。

First, there are History at the Movies, Chinese Philosophy, Selected Reading of Chinese Classic Books, Chinese Painting, Chinese Calligraphy & Painting, Seal Carving, Ceremics, Original English Musical and other humanities and arts courses. Ms. Rita's class combines history with movies, even making students who are not quite interested in history excited and ready to take their first steps into the world of history. Mr. Tony Wang's Chinese Philosophy course is devoted to the study of "The Book of Changes", a Chinese treasure, and in-depth exploration of traditional Chinese culture. In this course, students are encouraged to express themselves and feel the crystallization of Chinese wisdom. Ms. Jang's ceremics course guides the students to learn about the history of ceramic art and create their own pottery. In those electives, teachers use fun ways to help students broaden their horizons, increase their knowledge, help them experience and enjoy different cultures, and cultivate their humanistic and artistic competence.


语言社科类课程

Language & Social Studies


其次还有心理学、日语、法语、公共演讲、全球能源与气候政策等语言社科类课程。于老师的《法语》选修课和麻老师的《日语》课程为同学们提供了一个学习法语和日语、感受法国或日本文化的机会;Liz老师的《小大不列颠》课程帮助同学们更加了解现代英国语言、文化、历史和媒体,并提高英式英语的发音;George老师的《公众演讲》课程为同学们搭建了一个演讲训练营,同学们能够学习在不同场合、面对不同听众的演讲技巧和艺术。

Then, there are some language and social studies courses, such as psychology, Japanese, French, Public Speaking, and Global Energy and Climate Policy, etc.. Ms. Yu's French elective and Ms. Ma's Japanese elective provide students with an opportunity to learn French and Japanese and experience French or Japanese culture. Ms. Liz's Little Britain elective helps students learn more about modern British language, culture, history, and media, and help students pick up some British accent if they are interested. Mr. George's Public Speaking course provides students with a speaking training camp where they can learn the art and skills of speaking to different audiences in different situations.




生活实践类课程

Life Skills

生活实践类课程也有趣极了。视频剪辑、烘培、插花、特效制作、动漫制作……在老师们的指导下,同学们能够一同探索兴趣爱好,培养实操能力,解锁新的实用技能。由俞恺琳老师开设的烘培课一直饱受好评,不仅能学习到烘焙技术,也能提升与厨艺相关的生活技能。蔡学长的摄影技术和摄影社也是许多同学都想学习的,这次学校也特别许可蔡学长开设了摄影选修课。

Life-skill courses are also very interesting. Video Editing, Bakery, Flower Arrangement, Special Effects Production, Animation Production... Under the guidance of the teachers, students can explore their interests and develop new practical skills. Ms. Grace's Bakery elective is very popular every semester. In this course, students can not only learn baking skills but also improve their cooking skills. Photograhy club established by Hanxiao, one of the seniors, is also very popular. The school also supports Hanxiao to set up a photography elective this semester. 

体育类课程 

Sports Electives 

体育类兴趣选修课的开设,让热爱运动、热爱挥洒汗水的同学们拥有更广阔的释放自己的一片天地。除了学校常规的八项体育课项目(篮球、网球、羽毛球、高尔夫、跆拳道、太极、瑜伽、赛艇)以外,还开设了中国舞、三节棍、巴西柔术等运动。老师们带来的展示,让全场同学跃跃欲试。

Sports electives allow students who love sports to have more opportunites to explore themselves. In addition to the school's regular PE courses (basketball, tennis, badminton, golf, taekwondo, tai chi, yoga, rowing), there are also Chinese dance, three section cudgel, Brazilian jiu-jitsu and other sports. The teachers ’ presentation and demonstration made all the students eager to try.


学术研究&竞赛类课程

Academic Courses & Contests

除此之外,还开设了AMC数学竞赛、Physics Bowl物理碗、NEC全美经济学挑战赛、ACSL美国计算机科学联赛、 SRCC机器人等学术研究类课程,鼓励同学们参与学术竞赛,并为参与竞赛的同学提供专业指导。

In addition, the school also offers academic courses and contests  such as AMC Math Contest, Physics Bowl, NEC(National Economics Challenge), ACSL(American Computer Science League), SRCC Robotics, etc., to encourage students to participate in academic contests and provide professional guidance for them.



听完了宣讲会,同学们既兴奋又纠结,有趣又实用的课程这么多,但是只能选择一个参与,实在是太难选择啦!祝同学们都能选到心仪的课程,在感兴趣的领域里尽情遨游。

After the elective presentation session, the students felt both excited and torn, since they can only choose one from all those interesting and practical courses to participate in. I wish all students can choose the courses they like the best and enjoy their exploration in the fields they are interested in.
