Description
Our school is housed in a beautiful new colonial designed building, in a safe and nice residential part of the city called "El Batan". It is also very close to the new Ecovia bus line (new ecological buses which are powered by natural gas) which is only about half a block away, ideal for getting around the city.

The local neighborhood offers everything a student needs, restaurants, cafes, cyber cafes, shopping center, local post office and the school is located only two blocks away from Carolina park.

Our school is simply charming and is decorated in colonial style incorporating materials from those times, stone, iron and wood. The inside of the school is designed around the auditorium with beautiful colonial arches and fountains, quite magnificent and the perfect setting to study Spanish.

The school offers excellent facilities which include, interior patio, 21 well equipped classrooms with video room, library, impressive auditorium and solarium. Students can grab snacks at our school cafeteria and play sports after class in the multipurpose indoor court (racquetball, volleyball, soccer and basketball). All students have internet access and this school also offers bathroom and access for wheelchair users including elevator.
