Question
I would like to know if there are American or international high schools in San Miguel de Allende?
Thank you.

Answer
Hi Cliona,

There are no American high schools in San Miguel de Allende, per se. There is a small private school that many ex-pats send there kids to, Victoria Robbin's school, as well as a bilingual school, Jose Vasconcelos.

One option many parents prefer is the Tech de Monterrey high school or the Kennedy school in Queretaro--both considered excellent schools. But it does make for a bit of a commute.

Since I don't have kids, I'm not the best person to comment on these. I suggest you write to Ed Clancy, the US Consular Agent--not in his capacity as agent but as a father of school kids.  He'd the expert. You can reach him at edclancy@yahoo.com

Hope that helps
Donna
