Schools and Education

Parents with school-age children may choose from multiple schools in the area. One of Costa Rica's most respected English-language private schools, The Country Day School, focuses on serving the International community. The school provides education for students from the Pre-Kindergarten level through high school graduation. An emphasis is placed on university preparation and the school boasts an exceptionally high college placement rate. La Paz Community School is another highly regarded academic option in the area. Classes are taught in English and Spanish, with curriculum focusing on both academic instruction and social awareness and responsibility.

Parents also have the option of considering local public schools. Costa Rica has an advanced school system at the national level that far exceeds many other Latin American countries. With a national literacy rate of over 95%, the public school system is a point of pride for many Costa Ricans.
