The American School of Puerto Vallarta provides a quality "American-style" education to children living in Puerto Vallarta. The American School of Puerto Vallarta is a member of ASOMEX, the Association of American Schools in Mexico, one of four schools in Mexico officially sponsored by the U.S. Department of State's Office of Overseas Schools, and is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, the Mexican Ministry of Education, and by the National University of Mexico.
Why is accreditation important?- Accreditation represents a commitment to quality education.
- Accredited schools have a common core of transferable studies that meet world standards, differentiated only by typicality and appropriate concessions to culture.
- Accredited schools undergo regular re-evaluation by teams of professional educators whose focus is on school improvement and measuring student progress.
- Accreditation is a "seal of approval" and although not essential, it is important for students who will re-enter a school or university in the United States.
