The American School of Milan was established in 1962 as a non-profit
independent, college preparatory day-school. The school is accredited
by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools and is
a member of NAIS. Although the medium of instruction is English,
non-English speakers are accepted at the lower levels. The school
is owned by the parents of the children enrolled, who constitute
the Association, which annually elects a nine-member Board of Trustees.
Multiage programmes for Primary and Intermediate students honour
individual differences, taking learners from where they are and
allowing each child to make continuous progress. A wireless laptop
programme is provided for all students from grade 6. The International
Baccalaureate Programme is available. The school utilises the advantages
of its location in a modern European city with historical ties.
The secondary-level academic programme is college-preparatory, offering
an extensive programme in mathematics, science, English and social
studies plus a wide variety of electives including French and Italian.
The student body is primarily composed of Americans and Italians
but the presence of approximately 35 other nationalities creates
an international atmosphere.
The American School of Milan has established a flexible and diverse
activity programme in an effort to deal with the variety of student
interest and backgrounds. Field trips of both historical and cultural
interest are arranged in the Milan area. Week long field trips to
points of interest in Italy and abroad are organised in the month
of May for all children from the age of eight. There is a wide range
of extra curricular activities which include inter-scholastic sports,
music, drama, recreational activities, student council, National
Honor Society, and various other opportunities.
The school is the office College Board and American College test
centre for the Milan area.
The school is presently located in purpose-built facilities constructed
in 1976, on the outskirts of Milan.
