About Us
Our Identity.
Our insignia is a core part of our institutional identity. It represents all our core values, principles, and ambitions.
The intertwined trees signify growth, which finds its roots in a book, that is the foundation of all knowledge there is.
As a bearer of knowledge, the trees shoot up, ever in the pursuit of wisdom, experience, and knowledge.
The tree on the left stands for character, attitude, and personality, whereas the tree on the right represents skills and abilities.
Both are entwined in a mutually beneficial relationship, representing the circle of learning. Lastly, the birds symbolize the freedom students enjoy—of expression, speech, experience, collaboration, and living itself.
Being a Taurian means embracing it all!

Philosophy
Academic Excellence
Academic excellence is a signature strength of Taurian World School. At every discipline and level within our holistic curriculum, we inspire students to seek complex truths and develop critical thinking skills. Intellectual exploration through thoughtful discourse and rigorous inquiry at the Taurian table nurtures creativity, empathy, insight, inquisitiveness, and independent thought in our students.
Personal Motivation
Living away from home and residing on our beautiful campus provides invaluable opportunities for personal growth—something that our students pursue on their own. While they receive ample guidance and care from the staff, boarding students have an added responsibility for their education and life. This motivation is part of what makes Taurian students feel adequately prepared for college life and beyond.
Physical Development
A fit and healthy body is an essential prerequisite for a high-functioning mind. We at Taurian try to weave movement and promote health in all that we do, be it conducting outdoor classes, serving nutritious and tasty food in the mess, or building the infrastructure to support our student’s athletic ambitions.
Character Development
We’ve always put character before career. Because we believe that strong moral integrity and character are the foundations upon which a meaningful life is built. Our pedagogical approach helps students deal with life's challenges and fosters a sense of belonging and purpose. This grounding in character supports students' mental and emotional well-being, instilling resilience and a positive outlook—the stuff leaders are made of.
Leadership
Being a leader means being resourceful and bold. Putting others first. Taking risks. Fearlessly pursuing challenges and opportunities. We believe that there’s no age to be a leader. And we also believe that all great leaders start young. That’s why opportunities to do more, learn more and inspire others are embedded in our curriculum and open to everyone.
