Our Students

The Colegio Americano de Cozumel has a large number of bicultural students, representing many nations. Austria, Canada, USA, Argentina, Cuba, Jamaica, Germany, Spain, Italy, France, U.K., New Zealand,Belize,Phillipines, and Scandinavian countries are all represented at our school. This ethnic diversity creates an environment of acceptance and tolerance. This diversity offers our students the opportunity to learn about other's customs and traditions hopefully creating future leaders who are more open minded to differences, thus helping to build a less prejudiced world.

The American School of Cozumel is always happy to receive full credit foreign students as well as some non-credit temporary visitors. They benefit from the exposure to the Spanish and English languages, culture and social ways of our Mexican students. Our students, in turn, are exposed to other cultures and also have a chance to practice their English. We all benefit from this exchange..
