Aspaen Tacurí was founded in 1981 by Victoria de Domínguez as Directora General, María de la Concepción Jiménez as Rectora, Florencia de Aparicio as Directora Administrativa, Ruby de Gallo as Ecónoma, Cilia de Vergara as Secretaria Académica, María Beatriz de Luna as Representante de Aspaen, and the Reverend Diego Torres as Chaplain. In 1982, operations began on a provisional campus. In 1990, the school moved from the urban campus to a rural campus. In 1995, the bilingual program with international exchanges began, and in 1996 the first international exchange occurred with 14 fourth‑grade students traveling to Atchison, Kansas. In 2011, a Cambridge agreement was signed to implement the international program through 11th grade, and in 2012 the school was recognized as a Cambridge Primary School; in 2017 it was named among the ten best private schools in Colombia by the Ministry of Education, and in 2018 it earned EFQM's Committed to Excellence Level 2 certification.
We are a community formed by teachers, students, and parents, preserving the Aspaen hallmark. We live with a mission to serve society.
