American School Hong Kong (ASHK) is a non-profit, college preparatory international school offering a holistic American education taught by qualified North American teachers who inspire, motivate and challenge students to achieve excellence.

ASHK provides a rigorous American and international education program. Our inquiry, STEAM focus, and concept-based approach to teaching and learning promotes the development of critical thinking. Concept-based learning is about big transferable ideas that transcend time, place, and situation. Concepts are a way to organize and make sense of learning. Content focuses primarily on facts while concepts focus on making sense of those facts and the world around us. Through this approach, students are empowered to become independent, self-actualized, critical thinking problem solvers.

Students have opportunities to participate in both competitive and/or non-competitive sporting events within the school and externally. Basketball, soccer, volleyball, and track & field, as well as other team sports, are offered. ASHK is also a member of International Schools Sports Federation Hong Kong.

A broad range of clubs are also offered at ASHK, including Student Council, Environment Club; Habitat for Humanity; Global Issues Network (GIN); UNICEF; Amnesty International, Model United Nations, School Yearbook, School Newspaper, Chinese Magazine Club, Chess Club, Culinary Club, Math Team, Digital Ambassadors, Photography Club, Tutor Club, Debate Team and Battle of the Books Team.
