The foundation of the Stamford curriculum is the proven American Education Reaches Out and Common Core Plus standards. The adoption of grade-level standards ensures that students have the skills and concepts in each subject to be ready for success in the next grade. Ultimately students are prepared for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) or diploma pathway of choice. A particular focus on math, literacy, and sciences helps set this curriculum apart from other through-train IB schools.

Success today is not measured by grades alone; students must possess the life skills nurtured by an IB education, such as solid communication skills, risk-taking, and daring to ask bold questions. Stamford is the only school to offer an integrated STEMinn program (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math and Innovation) and Cornerstones (hands-on experience with industry expert mentors). Stamford graduates have an advantage over their peers as these programs allow them to build a portfolio of innovative projects while developing the top globally in-demand skills.
