The Schola is a quarterly journal of humanities and social sciences essays authored by high school students worldwide. As the only publication of academic work in the comprehensive international high school curriculum, we offer a unique platform for high school students to cultivate their intellectual talents. The content in our archives combines original, high-quality scholastic work with a systematic program of academic resources for students, teachers, and a broad audience.

A learning experience with The Schola extends well beyond manuscript submission. By submitting an essay to the journal, a student gains invaluable experience in academic publishing – presenting interesting ideas and research findings to a publisher, receiving editorial feedback, and editing the manuscript. Each student gains a rigorous, personalized academic experience through the editorial process. Students who have published with us already established publication records while improving their understanding of the publication process.

The Schola sets a global standard for academic excellence. Writing an essay for the journal demands significant dedication and hard work. Most of the former authors have gone to leading universities around the world. While college admission is not our primary objective, we view it as a reflection of the educational experience we provide. As an academic publication at its core, we foster lifelong learning and inspire young students to think critically about important issues in the social, political, and moral spheres of life.
