Buenos Aires - School Report Question and Answers

Please describe some of your child's/children's highlights and challenges during their time at this school.

Highlights: My children have benefited from the warm and welcoming community, especially in the elementary school. They have had several kind, dedicated teachers who created positive classroom environments. They have also enjoyed the international setting, friendships, learning Spanish, and opportunities to participate in activities like sports and school trips. Challenges: The biggest challenges have been the lack of academic rigor and differentiation, particularly in middle school. My children were often underchallenged, with expectations below the level of the U.S. school they came from. Communication—both day-to-day and big-picture—was often unclear, creating ongoing confusion for families. Overall, the academic experience did not meet the standards we expected for a high-cost international school presenting itself as an American program. - Dec 2025
