Vision: At American Academy Jordan, we believe teachers transform the lives of students, families and community. Through holistic education, we take joy in raising a new generation with wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Mission Statement: American Academy Jordan is raising a new generation of leaders with international mindedness, to be ambassadors to the world with excellence in wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Our students are explorers, adventurers, lifelong learners, with strong character and moral integrity. We act with determination, creative and analytical problem-solving, serving the community, being established in our given abilities, with love and respect across nationalities, ethnicities, religions, gender, with equality, seeking to esteem others higher than ourselves. Core Values: Loving “Love and respect one another.” Love selflessly protects, trusts, hopes, and perseveres. Perseverant “Be a finisher.” Perseverance is not giving up when the going gets tough. Responsible “With autonomy comes responsibility.” Responsibility is taking ownership of one’s actions. Honest “Honesty is the best policy.” Telling the truth brings freedom, honor and delight. Serving-others “Serve one another.” Serving others brings refreshment and joy. Thankful “Always give thanks.” Being thankful makes the heart happy. Forgiving “Be quick to forgive.” When we forgive one another, we too will be forgiven.
