Our Programs
Beyond the School's rigorous academic curriculum, our students have the opportunity to spend their time creatively and enjoyably by participating in a range of activities offered by the Special Programs.
Our students can choose from 55 diverse options, including foreign language lessons in English, French, German, Spanish and Mandarin Chinese; Robotics (STEAM); Drama Workshops; Philosophical Thinking; Chess; Music; Sports; and Dance. These programs help students discover their interests while nurturing their skills and talents. Each year, through their participation, 1,500 students train for competitions; prepare for foreign language certification exams; receive an education in the Arts; take part in educational excursions; and train in team sports, blending physical activity with leisure.
Special Programs classes are conducted in our school’s state-of-the-art facilities, under the guidance of specialized teachers. Through these experiences, students socialize and connect with their peers who share similar interests.
Music classes at the College Conservatory are also open to students from outside our School.
Commencement 2019: Announcement to Parents of Graduating Seniors
Psychico, June 12, 2019
Dear Parents of High School Grade 12 and IB2 students,
Commencement exercises will be held on Thursday, July 11, 2019 at 19:00.
We would like to inform you about certain organizational details associated with this event. As you already know, the College, wishing to further highlight the academic nature of the event, has established the donning of caps and gowns by seniors throughout the Ceremony. Caps and gowns are traditional forms of clothing for formal academic settings.
Caps and gowns are mandatory for students participating in the Commencement Ceremony and will be loaned by the School free of charge. Students, however, wishing to own their cap and gown, must purchase it (cost €135) from the Physical Education Secretariat (Ms. Tina Siapera) by June 21st.
Caps and gowns, will be distributed to students during the rehearsal on Wednesday, July 10, 2019, but will be kept at School overnight. At the time of distribution, students must deposit either their national I.D. card or their passport to get their cap and gown. Once the Commencement Ceremony has ended, caps and gowns are returned to the School and the student’s ID or passport is returned to him/her. Following the Ceremony, 2019 Graduates participate in the traditional Commencement Dinner in Bookis Plaza and the welcoming party hosted by the College Alumni Association (SAKA) in the outdoor patio of their Club building. Afternoon formal attire is expected for these events. Boys must wear a white shirt on the day of the Ceremony
We thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation which is essential for the success of the Commencement Ceremony. We wish all 2019 Graduates much success in their continued studies and in their future career.
With warm regards,
Apostolos AthanasopoulosCo-Director of Athens CollegeCoordinator of the HAEF School Units
