About our multi-disciplined curriculum
To fulfill our mission of supporting Russian-English bilingualism, many of our classes are taught in Russian, with the goal of helping students maintain and develop their language skills.
At GKRS, we also strongly believe in the value of a multi-disciplined curriculum. It has been our experience that students benefit greatly from simultaneous exposure to important and stimulating subjects grouped together and serve to broaden their horizons beyond the school program. In addition, our multi-discipline approach helps our students develop strong bonds within the GKRS community, make friends and feel comfortable in the classroom.
