The Keystone Academy (北京市鼎石学校; alternatively Beijing City Dingshi School) is a private K–12 school in Shunyi, Beijing, China. It was founded in 2014. The school offers IB Middle Year Program for Grade 6–10 and IB Diploma Program for Grade 11–12.

Malcolm McKenzie founded Keystone Academy, which opened in 2014. Beijing Meilian Wenhua Investment Co., Ltd. (Chinese: 北京美联文华投资有限公司) was one of the school's investors. According to the school, it employs a curriculum that mimics that of Sidwell Friends School. The Xinhua News Agency said that Keystone Academy charged more than CN¥200,000 (US$31,008) annually for each student, amounting to "four times the disposable income of an average Beijinger in 2015".
