The philosophy of MAS rests on the conviction that students should be prepared to become contributing and responsible world citizens, as well as participants in an evolving multicultural society. MAS, in partnership with parents and the wider community, instills in its students the spirit of culture, flexibility, international understanding, pride, creativity, respect, and appreciation for their heritage, and environment. Students are encouraged to see all human beings as equal, irrespective of religion, culture, ethnic origin or gender and, to deal with each other with mutual respect and compassion. Through its rigorous yet diverse programs, the school aims to guide students in discovering fulfillment and enjoyment in the ethical, intellectual, and artistic achievements of human endeavour. MAS views each student as a unique individual to be challenged, thereby achieving his or her personal potential, and experiencing the opportunity to succeed.
