Located in the heart of Mumbai, India, the American School of Bombay is a coeducational, independent, IB day school from Pre-K to Grade 12.
Recognition of student success and achievement is done daily in classes, on the courts and fields, in advisories, assemblies, and in exchanges throughout the school. It is focused on the growth of the individual. These regular forms of recognition are most significant to the development of a student’s self-confidence and self-awareness. We also believe that formal recognition can play a positive role in helping students recognize particular qualities in themselves and in others.
