What is the availability of international schools? What has been your general experience with them, if any?

I heard there are social problems. I've heard local students are not very accepting of "gringos," so the American kids then to get bullied a lot. It seems a lot of people have turned to homeschooling, or internet-based schools. - Feb 2020


There are three schools to pick from. One parochial, one international, and one British. There were lots of complaints of bullying and even parents not being inclusive of Americans and the international school. Visit all three and make the decision based on your child's needs. - Aug 2019


There are two approved choices that seems fairly standard. We don't have kids, but others here have not had big complaints about the schools. - Mar 2012
