About our School
Website: www.cap.edu.mx
The American School Foundation of Puebla is a private, K-12 bilingual, intercultural and multicultural school. We are one of the biggest schools in the city of Puebla, and one of the few that offers the International Baccalaureate Program and Advanced Placement courses in the city. Our students graduate with their Mexican Ministry of Public Education (SEP) diploma, and they also have the opportunity to earn the International Baccalaureate Diploma.
Nearly all of our graduates attend four-year universities. The number of students studying abroad varies from year to year; last year, 10% of our students chose to study abroad.
All of our high school students will be participating in our College Fair (approximately 500 students, including our senior class of about 135 students). Their parents will also be invited to attend.
