The Verita community of schools began in 1982 in Buscharest, Romania. In 2019, Verita opened its first school in Athens, Greece, responding to the needs of the diverse, international community. Verita is a family-owned school with a strong vision to provide both academic mastery and social-emotional ethical wisdom, leading a transformation in education for the 21st century. The evidenced-based practices at Verita are infused with forward-thinking, paradigm-shifting, reimagined learning, and Verita continues to push the boundaries of international education.
Beyond the Classroom workshops and athletics provide after-school programs open to all students from Early Years to Secondary School. Verita's Student Council develops leadership, fosters community awareness, and promotes global citizenship; beginning in Year 4, elected officers organize events and help fundraise for Service Learning Projects and Verita Foundation Initiatives. The Athletics program includes basketball, football, track and field, badminton, and tennis, with opportunities for school and intramural competition. School trips and guest speakers provide live learning experiences that connect classroom work with Athens' culture and environment.
