Principal's Message

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the American School of Ulaanbaatar Secondary School, "Home of Future Leaders".  It is exciting to lead our school this year as we move forward after many months of challenges.  I hope to help make 2021-2022 a year full of improvements in our programs and with future-oriented initiatives in the areas of academics, student life, and teamwork.

The Secondary School team is committed to fulfilling our school Mission and realizing the Vision of our stakeholders. Our mission statement expresses our purpose and our vision statement elucidates what kind of school we want ASU to be.  Our mission is to provide our students with the experiences, tools, and support needed for them to attain the knowledge, understandings, and skills necessary for success in school, college, career, and life. Our vision of ASU is a community of learners who receive a holistic education,  replete with rich experiences, engaging instruction, and diverse opportunities that will help them to become reflective, critical thinkers, and where they take responsibility for their own success in both personal and academic matters. The entire learning community will nurture empathy and ethics and lay the foundations for a life with meaning, joy, and contribution to the greater community.   We will do this by providing a solid, progressive curriculum of student-centered academic and co-curricular programs so that every ASU graduate becomes fully fluent in the English language, with opportunities to be successful at colleges and universities worldwide.   Our students of today will have the necessary opportunities and challenges to become the future leaders of tomorrow!
