Teaching and Learning
Our faculty has a commitment to continuous improvement in order to provide a unique and differentiated learning experience
Educating the whole child
We believe that an excellent educational environment can cultivate in students a passion for life-long learning. Pan American students are encouraged to go further, extending themselves not just intellectually, but socially and emotionally as well. At Pan American, we focus on educating the whole child, offering high-quality learning experiences both in and outside of the classroom. We recognize the student as the center of everything we do, and this core belief guides our priorities. Our data-based learning program focuses on the child’s individual growth, guiding students towards a successful future.
Primary
Primary school is an environment where knowledge is built as students and teachers engage in inquiry based learning.
Secondary
Here, we help students to grow academically, socially and emotionally - ready to face the world and its challenges.
Brazilian Studies
The Brazilian Program is comprised of Portuguese, Literature and Brazilian Social Studies. These classes take a constructivist approach while shaping student character.
Extracurricular
Our students have experiences that go beyond the classroom. Sports, arts and the acquisition of a third language are just some of their options!
Counseling
Early on we begin equipping our students with the skills necessary for social and emotional growth.
The international school of Porto Alegre
We are the Pan American School of Porto Alegre, a private, non-profit, multicultural, K-12 school with just over 400 students. Since 1966, we have worked to offer a high-quality education inside and outside of the classroom.
