    School
    Founded in 1967, Valle Verde is a private, co-ed, secular and bilingual school, which includes early childhood, elementary,
    middle school and high school levels with 1,293 students enrolled in 2019, in two campuses.

    Community
    Our Zona 15 Campus is located in one of the fastest property developments of Guatemala City and our school’s location
    is ideal since it responds to the district’s educational needs. Currently, the area is proliferating in preschools, given the
    housing boom, but there are no other schools in zone 15 that tend to children from Early Childhood to High School.

    Our CES Campus is located in Santa Catarina Pinula, 7 km from Guatemala City. The campus is very close to the business,
    medical, and entertainment center in the district. Some of the best academies, sports facilities, schools, and universities
    are also located in the vicinity. Our second campus opened its doors in 2011 as a response to the growing student
    population in the z.15 Campus.

    Student/faculty ratio:
    CES campus: 8:1
    Zona 15: 8:1
    Average Class Size: 25 students per class.
