Curriculum

Chamberlain International School is proud to be a diploma granting institution fully licensed in accordance with the standards set forth by The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.  As such we meet the rigorous standards set forth in the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks.  We offer college preparatory and general education courses to both middle and high school students.  A strong focus of our academic program is on meeting the skills required in the core academic subjects: Literature, Writing, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science. Additionally, our students benefit from additional studies in Foreign Language, Visual Arts, Automotive Technology, Physical Education, Health, and Study Skills.

The academic program at Chamberlain International School works within a larger interdisciplinary team of professionals to ensure that students successfully meet their academic potential.  Teachers and Educational Supervisors work collaboratively with Speech Language Pathologists, Occupational Therapists, Mental Health Clinicians and medical professionals to ensure that all strategies are being used to meet the students’ goals.  This team approach, coupled with the low student to teacher ratio, allows our educators to tailor and individualize content and instruction to optimize success.

Our core curriculum is further enhanced by Chamberlain’s SAT/ACT Preparation Program, Vocational Training Programs, and Enrichment Course Program.

SAT/ACT  Prep

College bound students will be interested in Chamberlain’s SAT/ACT Preparation Program. This program consists of SAT/ACT preparation courses, a thorough assessment for all appropriate SAT and ACT accommodations, including onsite provision of the tests. This combination of early preparation and a comfortable setting for test administration assists the students in achieving the best scores possible.

Vocational

Vocationally oriented students are offered instruction designed to prepare them for future vocational studies or entrance into the world of work.  For students who will receive academic instruction centered on a successful transition to work and independent living, our faculty use the nationally recognized Life Centered Career Education program.   Other students will participate in Chamberlain’s Integrated Vocational Training Program. In this program, Chamberlain’s Vocational Coordinator works individually with identified students to map out a plan for future employment and training by helping students identify areas of interest, and seeking out internships to gain valuable work experience.

Enrichment

Supplementing our core academic courses, all of our students participate in our varied and exciting Enrichment Course Program.  Chamberlain International School has a long history of offering students inspiring and non-traditional courses designed to stimulate their interest and foster a life long love of learning.  These offerings are varied and designed to reach the interest of a wide variety of students.  Current offerings include:  Aviation, Equestrian Studies, Asian Culture and Language, International Cuisine, and Drama.  For a complete list of courses please see the Enrichment Course page.
