What are the schools in Mexico City like?
When we asked about the schools in Mexico City, they said...
"The Washington Post and US News have named two excellent international schools in Mexico City: Emery/Weiner School and The American School Foundation of Mexico. Both of these schools offer high-level bilingual education. Emery/Weiner School offers dual language instruction in Hebrew and English, with a strong focus on developing students' critical thinking skills. The American School Foundation of Mexico provides a rigorous college-prep curriculum conducted in English, along with extra-curricular activities such as athletics, music, and art. Additionally, the school offers classes in Spanish and French, as well as experiential learning in the community. Both schools pride themselves on fostering a diverse and nurturing atmosphere, providing an excellent education and ample learning opportunities for every student," remarked one expat living in Mexico City with children attending .
"Look at other schools. It is worth it. 38 teachers left in 2013, the administration is hidden in an office. The headmaster, jonathan Robins has no qualification what so ever for the job. The new teachers do not work as a team, and it does not help when your child is in 11grade or 12 grade. It is way too expensive for what it is. We are not sure the kids are happy now/," said one expat in Mexico City with children at Greengates School.
