The curriculum offered at Sigonella School is very similar to most schools in the states and our programs match up closely with those offered at comparable size schools. A college-bound curriculum is offered to all high school students with a variety of programs available for all.
The schools strive to meet the needs of all students, however, there are limited programs for students who have special needs or have needs beyond the normal scope of the curriculum. DoDEA personnel believe that all children can be successful with the proper strategy interventions and an ample amount of time. We encourage all families to complete the overseas screening process to ensure our programs match up with any special needs your children may have, there is limited support on the local economy
