首创历史规模,
展现教育交流新高度
作为NASEA首次横跨四城、三国举办的北美寄宿中学博览会,本次活动堪称FindingSchool十年来在国际教育交流领域的重要里程碑。

从Choate Rosemary Hall、Episcopal High School、The Peddie School、Blair Academy、Williston Northampton School、Emma Willard School、The Webb Schools、Westminster School、Berkshire School、McCallie School等传统老牌学校,到众多特色鲜明的寄宿名校,这些学校代表的到来不仅代表信任,更体现出北美顶级寄宿中学对亚洲市场的重视。

四城活动亮点

"Quality over quantity-always."
这正是FindingSchool对于NASEA的核心理念。我们坚持邀请真正优质、有需求的家庭,让学校与合适的学生面对面交流,确保每一次对话都真实、有效、有价值。

结果也证明了这一点:
来参加NASEA美高博览会的观众大多以家庭为单位,现场人次上海250+、深圳220+、东京80+、胡志明市150+--每一场都是高质量沟通与精准匹配的真实发生。

圆桌论坛聚焦:
教育价值的再思考
今年的NASEA圆桌论坛聚焦于"教育幸福感""文化匹配度""国际学生支持"等议题,为亚洲家庭提供了关于如何选择真正适合孩子的学校的深刻洞察。

🇨🇳 上海 & 深圳会场
两地的论坛以"Beyond Grades: What Makes a Good Fit?"为核心主题。
来自The Kiski School的学校校长Mark P. Ott, PhD、来自The Masters School的招生和助学金主任Betty Matias Hsu、来自Chatham Hall School的招生办副主任Samantha Blankenship、来自The Pennington School的招生办副主任Lynn Zahn、来自The Stony Brook School的招生主任Luke Heywood与来自Elite Preparatory Academy的招生主任Tong Cao分享了他们眼中"合适学生"的标准,强调学生的兴趣、品格与社区参与度同样重要。
他们指出:"录取最适合的学校,而非最难进的学校",才是教育幸福的开始。

此外,在主持人的带领下,美国精英教育的代表者向与会的中国家庭们深入分析了AI潮流和全球公民意识高涨的当下,美国中学教育是如何拥抱和适应这一浪潮的。
除了从美国远道而来的30多所学校招生代表和校友家庭代表,还有包括ETS托福考试中心、Vericant维立克面试、李秉光教授、CHINA STUDENT ATHLETE ASSOCIATION中国学生运动员联盟、无名氏语培、赢众海外咨询、HSBC汇丰、SPBCN(Spelling Bee of China)国际英文拼词大会在内的留学行业合作方亲临现场,为参展的观众家庭提供免费福利和专业指导。

🇯🇵 东京会场
东京站由FindingSchool与当地合作方Boarding School Group协作举办,我们选择在台场(Odaiba)举办,也别具意义。由这座融合未来科技与海滨人文的城市空间,为活动提供了开放、创新的氛围。
正如东京圆桌讨论所展示的那样--"美国寄宿中学的意义与价值"、"招生官眼中的理想申请者"、"家庭与学校的文化匹配"--在日本这样一个兼具国际视野与独特教育文化的市场中,这场交流显得格外珍贵。

活动由FindingSchool创始人张溪老师致开幕词。开幕致辞与圆桌论坛不仅帮助日本家庭理解美高教育的核心价值,也回应了他们对申请策略、文化适应与学校选择的实际疑问。值得一提的是,到场的家庭中大约有10%的比例为在日的中国学生家庭。
🇻🇳 胡志明会场
越南场活动选在欣欣向荣的胡志明市举办。现场座无虚席。

圆桌论坛嘉宾包括FindingSchool的学校关系负责人James, Emma Willard招生官Jing、Webb Schools招生官Jamila、Millbrook招生官JP、以及当地合作方American Education Group的创始人Richard。他们围绕着学生全面发展、心理支持与国际升学指导,以及寄宿教育的长期价值,积极展开分享,五个分话题受到了家庭的热烈关注:
1️⃣ 如何平衡体育、学业与个人生活
2️⃣ 国际生的升学指导体系
3️⃣ 校园心理健康资源与支持
4️⃣假期住宿与社区关怀
5️⃣ 最新美国留学政策趋势与申请建议

展会现场互动积极,还有美驻胡志明领事馆的代表亲临现场。当地家庭表示此次论坛让他们对美国寄宿中学的支持体系与教育理念有了更全面的理解。
