It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Chiriquí is located in a privileged place in our country, with abundant natural resources, rich color, and a population of diverse cultures. The unique values of the Boquete and David communities are manifested in the warmth and hospitality of its citizens, and in the vibrant cultural, social, economic and educational development that sustains their foundation. The significant foreign influence, with its customs, languages, traditions and values, added to the customs of the local population, distinguishes the town of Boquete and the David community from the rest of the country. It is this multicultural richness that has made Chiriquí a special point in our Republic. Therefore, it is necessary to support its growth by educating our children and youth in the values of the communities. They should have a complete educational formation, fundamental for their aspirations to obtain success in a world that constantly evolves and that demands the social-human educational engagement of the individual in each developing region without distinction of race or social origin. Boquete is characterized as a highland mountain community where coffee cultivation and tourism are its main economic activities. These aspects of its economy will be highlighted in the academic offering of our campus. David is characterized as the commercial center of the province of Chiriquí. It should be noted that the inhabitants belong to diverse nationalities and cultures. Therefore, it is a priority that the education imparted at our centers is bilingual (English and Spanish). The challenge of our educational institutions is to achieve the holistic development of our students. The fruits of a well-prepared student body are the reason we join this great and difficult task of forming men and women of goodwill and broad knowledge, not only practical and theoretical, but that go beyond the traditional, including science, analytical thinking, ethics, and nature.
Academia Internacional Boquete is a bilingual, STEAM‑focused school in Panama serving preschool through secondary. The Bespoke Curriculum blends Spanish and English instruction with an emphasis on science, technology, entrepreneurship, and leadership. In the grades, students can pursue a Bachiller en Ciencias (Science Bachiller) while benefiting from Biology and Chemistry laboratories and a Technology Laboratory designed for hands‑on inquiry. The Boquete campus combines two buildings in a natural setting, featuring bioclimatic architecture, rainwater harvesting, recycled materials, and 24‑hour security. Academically and culturally, the school supports multilingual communication within a community. Extracurriculars include Arts and Creative offerings (art across all levels, theatre for primary and secondary, a band program, and chess) and Social and Hobbies activities (debate, sports). A strength is leadership development through Grupo Academia Internacional, which forms bilingual leaders from age 4 and emphasizes values, innovation, and environmental respect. The program encourages community engagement and preparing students to contribute globally.
