Teaching Approach

Updated 8mo ago

King Abdullah Academy describes an approach focused on empowering students to excel academically while inspiring a love of learning and knowledge, including engagement beyond the classroom (e.g., arts and athletics). It emphasizes developing caring, responsible global citizens while maintaining Islamic values and building proficiency in the Arabic language, as part of its IB World School framework.

Admissions

Updated 8mo ago

King Abdullah Academy’s site indicates it is no longer accepting new students because the school closed after the 2024–2025 academic year (the inquiry-form page states admissions are closed and directs record requests to an email contact). Historically, families began by submitting an inquiry form (noted as becoming available each January; for example, the site calendar/event listing shows an inquiry-form opening dated January 1, 2025 for the 2025–2026 cycle). The admissions timeline described on the admissions page says the process for prospective kindergarteners begins in April, other grade-level admissions begin in May, and enrollment contracts are issued in July. The admissions page also points families to contact the admissions office for questions (email/phone listed) and notes that students of all backgrounds and faiths were welcome to apply and that the Academy did not discriminate. The publicly accessible pages do not describe any waitlist procedures or priority/priority-category rules (and the admissions FAQs/step-by-step details are not accessible from the site content available here).
