Gimnasio del Norte International School
Gimnasio del Norte International School has a long history dating back to 1977. The school is dedicated to preparing young people for a global society and empowering them to make a positive impact in their communities.
What makes Gimnasio del Norte unique is its affiliation with the International Baccalaureate Organization. Since 1993, the school has offered all three IB programs, which is rare in Colombia.
This means that students at Gimnasio del Norte receive a comprehensive education that includes the Primary Years Programme, the Middle Years Program, and the Diploma Programme. By following this international curriculum, the school ensures that students become well-prepared global citizens.
One outstanding feature of Gimnasio del Norte is the Germán Arciniegas Library. It has been transformed into a vibrant resource center for learning, research, and promoting reading. This library is important for various projects and essays required by the IB programs. It is used for the Primary Years Programme units of inquiry, Middle Years Programme Personal Projects, and Diploma Programme extended essays.
Gimnasio del Norte prioritizes the safety and well-being of its students. Every aspect of the school is designed to ensure their comfort and security, starting from the moment they step onto the school buses.
