What are the schools in Costa Rica like?
When we asked about the schools in Costa Rica, they said...
"This school is small, less than 300 students, but the atmosphere is safe and friendly with a focus on student success. Every teacher I have met is enthusiastic and enjoys his/her job. I would also encourage any parent to be prepared to volunteer their time in support of the school because AIS depends on parent-volunteers to serve on various committees. Overall, I am very satisfied with AIS," commented one expat when asked about American International School in Cariari - Heredia.
"If your expat package does not cover the cost of a school- Take advantage of the language and culture and try to get your children to benefit from it by experiencing it. Avoid over paying at the other schools- this school is for kindergarten to high school," explained one expat in Santa Barbara de Heredia, Costa Rica with kids at New Hope.
