Founded in 1944, the American Nicaraguan School (ANS) is a premier, private, co-educational day school located on a vast 26-acre campus in the Lomas de Monserrat neighborhood of Managua. Serving approximately 893 students from over 30 nationalities, the school offers a highly rigorous, US-accredited American curriculum to students from age 3 through 12th grade. Instruction is delivered entirely in English, and graduates benefit from a Dual Diploma program that awards both a US High School Diploma and the Nicaraguan Baccalaureate. ANS provides extensive academic enrichment through its robust Advanced Placement (AP) program. The campus features unparalleled facilities in Nicaragua, including a 28,500-volume lending library, modern science labs, and comprehensive athletic complexes. With a deep emphasis on community service, robust arts programs, and competitive AASCA sports, ANS comprehensively prepares students to enter top-tier universities worldwide.
