The Educational Philosophy at Harvard American School

The purpose of the Harvard American School – Qatar is teaching and learning.  This purpose is predicated on the educational philosophy that all students can learn and have the right to a standards-based education. 

We believe that education is an art and a science.  The art of education is the innovation, creativity, values, self-beliefs, and other developmental pathways that the organization utilizes to support the whole child and brings to fruition the hopes, dreams and aspirations of the families and communities that Harvard American School serves.

The sciences are research-based, implementation of 21st Century best practices, organizational structures, performance management frameworks, sound fiscal management, responsible policies and operating procedures, and data driven decision making, which are the foundation of the institution.

Our goal is to prepare students to become engaged citizens whom will give great respect for differences in a world that is full with different ethnic backgrounds, religious traditions, living ways styles, citizens whom we will contribute to safe guarding our nature. We really believe that all students are valued and included, and can make a difference.
