Background

Beijing Shuren Private School was founded in 1993 by Ms. Wang Jianchao, a former university professor, when China had just opened its policies to private institutions. During a time when only public education was available, and extracurricular courses had to be found outside of the school system, Ms. Wang wanted to create a more wholesome educational institute that nurtured creativity and encouraged the discovery of all aspects of a child's potential, academically and otherwise. Based on these simple principles, a new type of school was created. Students and visitors from various regions of the world have visited us ever since, and our students, as young as 11 years old, have had the opportunity to participate in numerous international exchange programs.

Our 16 acre campus in the Artists' Village – just 20 kilometers east of the Central Business District (Guomao) – is a closed and secure garden community in the suburbs of the world's fastest growing metropolitan, providing an environment that is conducive to learning, self-discovery and friendship.

A 20% Tuition deposit is required to reserve a place for the student. The balance of payment should be made before the first day of school. At the end of a 14 day grace period, a 100 RMB penalty is charged, and the student is excluded from class until fees have been paid in full. 80% of the tuition is refundable for transfer student in good standing; the refundable amount is pro-rated based on the total number of weeks the student is enrolled.

American High School

The American High School prepares students for further education in the United States (or other major English speaking countries). Here we teach an American curriculum that exceeds standards required by most major universities. A strong emphasis is placed on Chinese language and culture for both domestic and international students. This very individualized curriculum as well as their experience in China will benefit them for a lifetime in their language abilities and cultural understanding. English learners are provided a strong ESL support program to help them transition smoothly into the full curriculum.

College counseling is provided by our Principal. A detailed record is kept on grades, standardized scores, behavioral reports and attendance records for each student. When the student is ready for graduation, this record is then used along with a letter of recommendation and other documents for student's application for further education.

Diploma Options

• Honors Diploma – 27-28 Credits If a student completes all BSRPS requirements, accumulates a minimum 3.50 Grade Point Average, and completes the portfolio requirement, and completes an additional science and social studies, art and humanities elective, he/she will receive an Honors Diploma.

• Advanced Diploma – 25-26 Credits A student may earn an Advanced Diploma by completing all BSRPS requirements including a portfolio, and maintaining a 3.0 GPA. An additional science and social studies, arts and humanities elective are required.

• Standard Diploma – 23-24 Credits If a student completes all of the BSRPS requirements and passes the proficiency tests, he/she will receive a Standard Diploma.

It is strongly recommended that students wishing to attend university in the U.S. take the Pre- Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT) in their 10th grade year—probably during the spring or summer vacation. Additionally, 11th grade students should plan on taking the SAT or ACT during the autumn of their junior year.
