Each semester, Karl School organizes a week of volunteer activities for their students. In June this was conducted via video conferencing with representatives from Canada, Laos, and the U.S. Students had to talk about their volunteer experiences in English. Principal Chan points out that besides offering bilingual academic classes in Mandarin and English, Karl School further offers Spanish, French, and Japanese classes for secondary school students. Classes are taught by teachers from different nationalities and professional backgrounds, so that students are able to learn a rich, diverse range of knowledge, across multiple languages, so that they possess the vision and skills required to embrace international opportunities. This also aligns with the goal of "Taiwan's Ministry of Education" to fully implement bilingual education by the year 2030 to enhance learning experience and international competitiveness.
