ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS The Common Core State Standards© for English Language Arts & Literacy represent the next-generation of K-12 standards designed to prepare all students for success in university, career, and life by the time they graduate from high school by promoting critical-thinking, and the ability to closely and attentively read texts in a way that will help them understand and enjoy complex works of literature, problem-solving, and analytical skills. The standards lay out a vision of what it means to be a literate person who is prepared for success in the 21st century. MATHEMATICS Common Core State Standards© for Math draw on the most important international modes for mathematical practice, as well as research and input from numerous sources, including scholars, assessment developers, professional organizations, & educators. The knowledge and skills students need to be prepared for mathematics in university, career, and life are woven throughout the mathematics standards. The Common Core concentrates on a clear set of math skills and concepts. Students will learn concepts in a more organized way Both during the school year and across grades. The standards encourage students to solve red-world problems. SCIENCE Next-Generation Science Standards (NGSS) are standards with a purpose covering every grade and every scientific discipline, setting expectations for what students should know and be able to do in science. A major differentiator of NGSS is its "three-dimensional" (3D) learning which refers to the thoughtful and deliberate integration of three distinct dimensions: Scientific and Engineering Practices (SEPs), Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCIs), and Crosscutting Concepts (CCCs). Through 3D learning, the NGSS emphasizes that science is not just a series of isolated facts. This awareness enables students to view science more as an interrelated world of inquiry and phenomena a static set of science disciplines. The NGSS represents a fundamental shift in science education and requires a different approach to teaching science than has been done in the past. The NGSS enable teachers to offer all students interactive instruction that promotes analysis and interpretation of data, critical thinking, problem-solving, and connections across science disciplines—with a high set of expectations for achievement. HUMANITIES Humanities studies help students value literature, social sciences, different cultures, what goes into making history, and how a work of art is designed. The efforts in humanities highlight the great heritage of the past, give us tools to have a global perspective and enable us to imagine the future.

IVY students graduate with a highly prestigious 4x4 model, i.e. four credits in each of the core areas. Students must complete 26 high school credits to graduate. Students typically earn seven credits in a year. Students may start earning credits as early as 8th grade.

IVY International Schools offers a dual High School Diploma to students graduating from Grade 12. Students will earn an accredited High School Diploma from the Egyptian Ministry of Education, as well as an official and accredited High School Diploma from the USA, with the option to complete Grade 12 and graduate in either country.

IVY analyzes student data to assist students in setting personalized goals to improve their performance and keep parents up-to-date regarding their children's progress towards goals. The intervention system also makes it easy for teachers to interpret the data and act on it. One of the most features of the system is that it can generate recommendations for teachers regarding how they can create flexible student groups for intervention and enrichment purposes assessment results. IVY has integrated a personalized assessment and learning system(blended learning) into its curriculum documents and intervention model. Students have access to adaptive educational software that assesses students' strengths and weaknesses and creates learning paths for them. Students are tracked and assessed using the software, Which allows them to progress at their own accelerated pace.
