In 1970, a group of visionary professionals with a diverse set of specializations founded Colegio Inglés . Their mission was to offer an innovative approach to a co-ed bilingual education, immersing students in an environment that would allow them to communicate and learn in both English and Spanish. Since that time, Colegio Inglés has evolved in response to the changing needs of its students.

Today's Colegio Inglés students will study, work and live in an increasingly global society. They will encounter opportunities and confront challenges of global proportions, and will be expected to resolve problems that reach beyond borders and extend across cultures and languages. Consequently, we can no longer be content to teach our students to master only subject area skills and knowledge. In addition, we must ensure that our students learn to apply and transfer to new situations the principles of ethics, habits of mind, critical thinking skills, research strategies and technology concepts that will enable them to approach these opportunities, challenges and problems with both confidence and competence.
