This school really shows globalization in action. All these parents in China are willing to pay a huge amount of money for an "AMERICAN" education. The same goes of American products. People are willing to pay the money and American items and culture are sweeping across the globe. Of course with their American education the students will be exposed to american products, customs, and culture, too. The success of this school demonstrates how the world is "flattening" and becoming more and more interconnected each day.
