Escola Americana de Campinas (EAC) is an independent, not-for-profit, co-educational international school on a 15-acre campus in Campinas, Brazil, about one hour from São Paulo. The school serves around 850 students aged 2 to 19 and is accredited by the Council of International Schools (CIS) and the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC). The curriculum combines Montessori foundations in Preschool with a standards-based American and Brazilian program in Grades 1–12, and offers the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme in Grades 1–5 and the IB Diploma Programme in Grades 11–12. It operates as a dual-language environment (English/Portuguese) with Portuguese language instruction for 4- and 5-year-olds as part of the Brazilian program. The campus emphasizes STEAM across the curriculum; a 1:7 student-to-teacher ratio; and a developing Arts Center featuring a 500+ seat theater. After-school activities include Athletics, Creative Arts, Academics, Technology, Wellness, and Global Citizenship, with more than 40 offerings.
