The American School of Puerto Montt is a private, co-educational Catholic school serving PlayGroup through IV Medio. It operates a bespoke curriculum with a strong emphasis on English and forms part of its identity through Formacion Espiritual and Formacion Humana within the Área de Formación. A Virtues program recognises student progress with a Merit Slip and focuses on values such as order, responsibility, respect, honesty and effort. The school partners with Cambridge English Qualifications and is a Cambridge exam preparation center in the city, aligning with CEFR levels for speaking, writing, reading and listening. Disciplinary philosophy is formative, with penalties only for internal-rule breaches. Founded in 1960 and recognized by the Ministry of Education in 1961, it moved to Valle Volcanes campus in 1997 and expanded in 2007 under high‑performance standards. The 1-hectare campus includes two building volumes, geothermal heating, radiant floors, and daylight to support learning and well‑being.
