LOCATION IS KEY The American School in Switzerland (TASIS) is located on a hillside in the south of the country, with commanding views of Lake Lugano. Its location makes possible an impressive academic travel programme. Via the programme, travel experiences throughout the year bring students face to face with the rich cultural heritage of Europe and the spectacular natural beauty of the Alps and beyond. TASIS’s pioneering Global Service Program provides every high-school student with an opportunity to connect across borders – whether geographic, economic, or social – through comprehensive experiences that build empathy and encourage personal responsibility. Says the school’s Mark Chevalier, “The programme awakens students to humanitarian needs, inspires them to build enduring, mutually-beneficial relationships, and leads them toward a life of active citizenship and committed service.” In the end, relocation to Switzerland offers globally- mobile families an enviable choice of provision for their school-age children. Whether they choose local integration in a state-funded school or an internationally-transferable learning programme in one of the country’s excellent international schools, parents can be confident that their children will be entering a world-beating education system.
