Generally, Americans do not use the word "programme" unless they are affiliated with a British or European organization. However, they occasionally use it to describe an event/occasion in order to (I believe) sound more cosmopolitan/European/British. Otherwise, Americans would consider use of the word "programme" to be a spelling mistake.

If it's a school that uses British English, it is likely programme.
If it's a school that uses American English, it is likely program.
So you will have to consult the school.
