Arabic Year
In 2011, King's Academy initiated the Arabic Year at King's Academy (AY) program which offers one year of intensive Arabic study, culture immersion and experiential learning to American and international high school students (grades 10-12) interested in Arabic and Middle Eastern study. The program offers AY students two classes of intensive Arabic each school day as part of a normal raft of college preparation courses. In addition, students enjoy extensive outings and trips throughout the historic and beautiful country of Jordan.

Famous quotes containing the word year:
“The first year was critical to my assessment of myself as a person. It forced me to realize that, like being married, having children is not an end in itself. You don’t at last arrive at being a parent and suddenly feel satisfied and joyful. It is a constantly reopening adventure.”
—Anonymous Mother. From the Boston Women’s Health Book Collection. Quoted in The Joys of Having a Child, by Bill and Gloria Adler (1993)
