The International School Nido de Aguilas was founded in 1934 as a private, co-educational, non-sectarian, non-profit day school rooted in the traditions of Chilean and North American education. The school serves approximately 1,500 students from 50 countries and offers a comprehensive liberal arts, college-preparatory program from Early Years through Grade 12. All classes are taught in English, with Spanish language classes required at all grade levels. Nido is an IB World School, a member of AMISA and NAIS, and is the official U.S. State Department-sponsored school in Chile.
The Nido community hosts a range of traditions and events throughout the year. Divisions celebrate learning with events such as International Day, musicals, performances, exhibitions, Spirit Week, and Back-to-School Nights. Fiesta Huasa is celebrated during September in honor of Chilean Independence Day, and the Kermess is an international carnival in November. Alumni reunions are held annually in December.
The Nido Parent Association (NPA) is open to all Nido parents. Its mission is to help parents participate in their children's schooling and to promote a sense of community. The objectives include improving communication with and among parents and the teaching community; helping and supporting school programs and events; financially supporting the community with funds raised through events; promoting involvement and integration of the school community through social events; and helping new families integrate into the school. The NPA store is volunteer-run and 100% of its earnings are used for the benefit of the Nido community. To participate, email volunteers@npa.nido.cl. Documents include NPA Bylaws and NPA-Nido Relationship Agreement.
