High School Curriculum
The educational program at the high school level (Grades 9-12) is that of a quality college preparatory program in the United States. Emphasis is on preparation for admission into colleges and universities in the United States, Perú, and other countries. Thus, Colegio Roosevelt is best suited to students with serious scholastic interests and abilities.
Curricular design and course format follow the model of the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) thus meeting both United States and Peruvian standards. Students enroll in either the U.S. or Peruvian program to obtain a U.S. diploma and a Peruvian certificate. Peruvian program students obtain the U.S. diploma to best take advantage of the educational experience offered by the American School of Lima. (see Dual Certification). In grades 9 and 10, our courses are based upon the IBO Middle Years Program. In grades 11 and 12 most courses are based upon the IBO Diploma Program.
Admissions and Placement
Colegio Roosevelt seeks to enroll students who can be academically
successful in our educational program. Admission is contingent
on an interview, completed application forms, previous school
records (with English translation), and any other pertinent data
to aid the Guidance Office in analysing of transfer credits and
grade and course placement. In cases where there appears to be
doubt concerning grade placement or where transcripts and records
indicate questions as to a student's ability to succeed at Roosevelt,
a student may be placed on "Conditional Admission" status
for the first semester of attendance. Transfer students may transfer
in no more than 7 credits per year.
