What are the schools in San Jose like?

"San Jose is home to a variety of educational options, from public schools to international and bilingual schools. One of the top international schools in the city is Lincoln School, which offers bilingual education for students from Pre-Kindergarten to 12th grade. At Lincoln School, classes are taught in both English and Spanish and students are nurtured to develop self-confidence, personal responsibility and a global outlook. Other international schools in the city include Colegio San Judas Tadeo, which provides English language instruction and a comprehensive curriculum. Escuela Internacional Sampedrana is another excellent option, offering high-quality programs with emphasis on international understanding and respect for cultural diversity. And Alianza Bus School promotes the integration of academics, the arts and technology in its bilingual programs. While cost of attendance can vary greatly at each school, San Jose's plethora of options means families can find the right educational option for their children," commented one expat when asked about in San Jose, Costa Rica.

"This is good academically and fairly high standards. Not good for all students if they need extra help and they can get left behind. They do IB, which is more important all the time for anywhere in the world.Price fairly high now approx $850 a month including the bus," remarked one expat living in San Jose with children attending British School.
