The George Washington School was founded in August of 1952.

The objective of this founding group was to create a bilingual school in Cartagena, with a calendar and curriculum similar to those of North-American schools. At first, the idea was to overcome the inconveniences generated by changes in the school calendar and programs for the children of foreign employees who came to Colombia or were returning to their own country. At the same time, they wanted to create possibilities for Colombian citizens to continue their studies under the North-American system without any setbacks.

Pre-school to High school.
