The primary section offers quality education which promotes in students the development of fundamental academic, technological and humanistic competencies. Our commitment is the development of an individual who demonstrates social responsibility, the capacity to assume challenges, and a leadership endeavor which will generate socio cultural, ethical and sustainable progress for the nation.

Aware of the importance of adapting in a constantly changing technological world, we believe in the teaching of technology as a working tool for the learner to acquire knowledge and further develop his or her competencies. For this reason, besides the acquisition of interactive electronic boards for each of the classroom, as well as their connection to wireless internet, the students will benefit from textbooks and on line resources and practices which will further assist them to reinforce concepts discussed in class.

The students will be instructed primarily in English. The subjects of Spanish and Social Sciences will be taught in Spanish. We have chosen Mandarin, which is the currently spoken by over one fifth of the global population, to be the third language taught in all electuary levels.

Children are naturally curious and often learn about the world around them through experimentation. Our science courses will provide clear explanation of natural events and expose students to hands on activities to develop problem solving skills and a motivation towards a lifelong interest in the natural world. In fulfillment of our desired learner results, Art will be a fundamental part of our educational proposal. Our focus is for the learners to demonstrate creativity and artistic sensitivity. The learner will be able to appreciate diverse forms of art and to express him or herself through one of its forms. Boston School International Panama has the Primary Years Programme (PYP) of the International Baccalaureate.

PILLARS



Program

We are an authorized IB World School for the DP and PYP programme. Currently offering MEDUCA Science Diploma.

Location

Boston School International is a private, independent college-prep school founded in 2012 in Panama City, Panama. It was relocated from the historical Canal area to the brisk and family oriented area of Costa del Este.

Academic calendar & language

Our school year operates on the North American academic calendar from August-June. We have open admissions throughout the year with an English-based curriculum.

What our parents say:


Lola Castellanos

We are pleased to say that we were fortunate to choose BSI as the school of choice when we disembarked on our international experience in Panama. Our daughters felt at home, despite the distance, and the teachers and staff welcomed us as part of the family.

Deby Huang

I have my triplets in preschool and I consider the academic part to be excellent. They are in kindergarten and are already starting to read. The teachers are wonderful and are always attentive to the needs of each one. I think it is positive that the school has planned continuous projects that help improve the environment and infrastructure for the comfort of the children and that it is concerned about carrying out activities that develop the sporting spirit and creativity of its students. My daughters are very happy and they like going to school very much.

María Alejandra Guerra

Boston has been for our family a place where my children enjoy learning in the company of multiple cultures and thoughts, which enriches their ability to socialize and interact with different groups while developing soft skills as important for life, such as academics. Likewise, she has always provided alternatives to support us in the different needs that our children require, giving us support at all times. Finally, I really like that it is an open-door space where we as parents know that there is an openness to discuss any issue that may concern us, both with teachers and with the school's board of directors.
