CAC’s hybrid program offers the flexibility of the US High School Diploma, IB Diploma, and AP courses, giving students various pathways to graduation. Our students have a voice and choice in their educational journey, to promote independence and offer opportunities to make decisions that align with their interests and strengths. 

A wide range of courses, including future-focused learning systems such as Design & Innovation Technologies and Sustainable Futures, develop essential skills for tomorrow’s world. Personalized, student-centered approaches—including Harkness discussions, collaborative inquiry, and direct instruction—make learning dynamic and engaging, while Flex periods further foster independence, providing time for students to manage their learning and deepen their academic growth.

CAC’s high school building is designed with innovation and flexibility at its core. Large classrooms allow for room to move and learn in comfort, while spacious and light-filled Arts spaces are crafted to inspire creativity. Custom-built Harkness tables foster dynamic discussions in English and Social Studies, while cutting-edge technology and equipment in our Science and Design & Engineering spaces bring experiments and innovation to life. With gallery areas and an indoor mini-amphitheater, the building promotes a balance of collaboration, movement, and relaxation for a comfortable and stimulating learning experience.

As the leading international school in Egypt, fostering a global perspective is a cornerstone of the CAC experience.
