Singapore American School is a private international school in Singapore that offers an American-based curriculum from preschool through to Grade 12. Approximately two-thirds of the students at SAS are United States citizens, with the rest of the student body comprising more than 50 nationalities. Few Singaporean students attend the school as Singapore government regulations prevent most local students from attending international schools within the country. Singapore American School has a six-year curriculum cycle resulting in continuous review and renewal in all subject and service areas. Each subject or service area is reviewed over a three year cycle: year one is the study year and stakeholder feedback, current practices and “best practices” are reviewed, year two is the development year and curriculum revision/renewal is finalized and new/additional classroom resources are identified, and year three is the implementation year and the new curriculum is implemented and classroom resources are incorporated into the delivery of the program. SAS is accredited by the United States based Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC).
