Diversity is the word that best describes Mexico’s people and geography. Over 50 different indigenous groups, each with its own language, comprise 28% of Mexico’s 83 million inhabitants. Divided by the Tropic of Cancer into the temperate North and the tropical South, the country boasts snow-capped volcanoes, jungle clad beaches, deserts, archeological ruins, modern cities, upscale resorts, and isolated villages. Known as “The City of Eternal Spring,” Cuernavaca is blessed with a perfect climate and flowers year-round. The city is located only about 50 miles south of Mexico City. Cuernavaca is a popular weekend spot for the affluent from the capital because of the many restaurants, sidewalk cafes, and theaters. |
Teen and adult program participants share the school facilities. The school is located in an upscale residential area, 15 minute walk from the central plaza. 2 buildings blended in together. Indoor and outdoor classes. Nice facilities with swimming pools, garden, small library, cafeteria selling food/snacks. Capacity is 325 students/day mainly from the United States and Canada. Supervision: Please note although this program will accept teenagers from 16-18 this is an UNSUPERVISED PROGRAM. This program is for mature, independent teens who understand along with their parents/guardians that little supervision will be provided and that all teens will be treated like mature, independent adults by school staff and host families.
