Is American Middle School On-line something for me?

The American Middle School On-line is designed for students in grades 6-8 who dream of graduating from an American elementary school and continuing their education in an American high school in an intramural or on-line format.

Joining JDJ IOS is possible even in the seventh or eighth grade of the elementary school. Thanks to over thirty years of experience in education and our proprietary methods of converting grades between different core curricula, we can admit a student to an American elementary school without the obligation to repeat the material they have already covered in their previous school.

The recommended level of English proficiency for comfortable learning at the middle school level is at least A2 (pre-intermediate). If you have any doubts about your language level, we encourage you to verify it by taking a certified ELTiS test (with us).

Starting your courses

You can start studying at the American Middle School On-line at any time of the year, from anywhere in the world. Teaching materials are available round the clock, and each school year lasts 10 months from the moment of activation of the student’s account.

JDJ IOS is a comprehensive ecosystem of solutions that enables and supports remote learning, available 24/7, 365 days a year. Not only does it allow you to use the educational platform from anywhere in the world, but also it supports uninterrupted communication with teachers from the US through a variety of on-line tools.

    Methods and learning

    Learning at the American Middle School On-line at JDJ IOS is based on a modern Learning Management System (LMS) that provides students with access to a variety of didactic materials. The learning process is interactive and engaging – it includes not only video materials and text tasks, but also quizzes to check current understanding of the material, short tests summarizing individual modules, and educational games that help consolidate knowledge in a natural and practical way. The purpose of these solutions is to enable students to assimilate knowledge effectively and in an attractive form.

    Thanks to the asynchronous learning formula, flexible solutions and modular lessons, there is no need to take brick-and-mortar exams. All you need to keep on learning is a computer and a stable Internet connection. This is an ideal solution for students who want to learn at their own pace and at convenient hours, combining education with their passions, travel or sport.

    The standard duration of the school year is 10 months, with the possibility of extending it by an additional 2 months if necessary. Students can also accelerate their learning by completing all required school work (Assignments & Assessments) earlier.

    Contact with teachers from the USA takes place within the framework of flexible consultations which are determined primarily by the student’s needs.

    American Core Curriculum

    Schools in the US – including the JDJ IOS American Middle School On-line – focus on developing key 21st century competencies: communication, critical thinking, collaboration and self-reliance. The tasks are primarily about presenting and defending your own views, rather than adapting to an assessment key.

    JDJ International Open Schools is part of the JDJ Bachalski group with over 30 years of experience in education, which makes us the undisputed leader in this industry in Poland.

    Opportunities Created by American Middle School

    Why American Middle School On-line? In an era of dynamic international developments, studying at an authentic US school opens the way to top high schools, including American High School On-line at JDJ IOS. Completing the Middle School gives the student much broader opportunities for further education than a traditional Polish elementary school, and at the same time, at an early stage, promotes achieving high proficiency in English.

    The right choice of Honors enables informed preparation for further education.

    JDJ educational mentors support students in both defining their further walks of life and in developing their interests.

    Affordable

    Organizing a year-long trip to a school abroad or attending a full-time international school in Poland implies very high costs – even as much as several dozen or several hundred thousand zlotys per year.

    In this context, the flexible American Middle School On-line provides an affordable path to admission to top high schools in the country and around the world, including the American High School On-line operating within the JDJ IOS educational ecosystem. Our programs provide an authentic US school experience aligned with the Common Core Standards and Cognia accreditation, guaranteeing the highest level of document credibility.

    Recognition and Accreditation

    Our American Middle School On-line programs are run on the exclusivity basis with an American High School curriculum provider accredited by Cognia (SACS CASI) and listed in the official register of private schools maintained by NCES (National Center for Education Statistics), a federal statistical agency operating within the U.S. Department of Education, a part of the Federal Statistical System of the United States.

    In practice, this means an authentic American educational experience and covering the materials that comply with the highest Common Core Standards as well as the requirements of the Florida school district. The courses are approved by the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association), which allows you to apply for athletic scholarships at prestigious American universities.
