Wao High School’s Mission and Vision

Wao High School aims to foster individuals who pursue personal happiness and contribute positively to society through a rich education and sound judgement. The institution emphasizes the importance of philosophy in shaping future leaders, encouraging students to engage in critical thinking and dialogue.

Why Learn Philosophy?

In today’s diverse and ever-changing world, absolute truths are seldom provided. Therefore, it is crucial for students to cultivate a rich educational background and flexible thinking skills that enable them to contribute to social development. Philosophy represents a significant endeavor in understanding human actions and thinking critically. Engaging in philosophical inquiry allows students to perceive the world differently and provides new perspectives on social issues.

Through repeated dialogues, Wao High School is committed to providing an experiential learning approach that promotes deep consideration and philosophical inquiry.

Innovative Learning Experience

At Wao High School, students benefit from both online and in-person educational experiences. The virtual campus connects students and staff nationwide, fostering community learning through daily activities and events, while dedicated coaches support learners in establishing effective study rhythms at physical campuses. Additionally, the Individual Guidance Axis offers personalized learning support tailored to each student's needs, from university entrance exam preparations to refreshing their knowledge.
