About Amerikanska Gymnasiet
Americanska Gymnasiet was founded on a strong pedagogical idea. Our guiding star is that "we work to ensure our students and staff reach their full potential." We therefore work with both knowledge development and personal development. Our culture is characterized by clear rules with care. We call it "Ramar och Kramar" (Frames and Hugs). The school is organized so that students are prepared for an international job market in a rapidly changing world; our logo therefore reads "Get ready for the world".
Everything that happens at the school is based on our four core values: Courage, Kindness, Knowledge & Curiosity, and Grit. In classrooms and hallways, interactions between students and staff are characterized by behaviors derived from these values. We work closely with students and always put their best interests first.
