Olympiads

Above all, at NLGS, we believe in driving students to fulfill their full potential, no matter their academic level. In addition, we do this with highly trained and understanding teachers. We believe not only in driving our students to be the best in the school but also to be the best in the country and the world. In conclusion, to achieve this, we teach and enter our students to compete in international Olympiads, from which our students have received gold and silver medals over the years.
