Its students, faculty, and staff are of various nationalities from all over the world. There are approximately 1,300 students.

History

Colegio Franklin Delano Roosevelt is and was founded in 1946 by American residents in Peru. It is a sectarian, non-profit, private day school supported by student tuition and fees. The program is co-educational, non-residential and extends from early childhood (age 3) through twelfth grade. The school is governed by a 12-member Board of Directors representing the Instituto Educacional Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The American School of Lima is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and the Peruvian Ministry of Education.

Enrollment

School facilities

The Elementary, Middle and High School programs are housed in facilities distributed throughout the campus. The Dr. Anne S. Johnson Media Center, known within the school as the Media Center, was constructed in 1984 and has over 40,000 volumes of books as well as a wide range of audio-visual resources. The school has more than 500 computers installed in 3 labs, classrooms, and most offices. Two multipurpose gymnasiums also support the instructional and extracurricular athletic programs. In 2007, the school built an indoor swimming pool.

Academics

The Pre-K through grade 5 elementary school is organized in heterogeneous classroom units. On September 8, 2010, the superintendent, Russ Jones, announced at the school's Superforum, that the grade 6 through grade 8 middle school would be eliminated in favor of a grade 6 through grade 12 upper school, beginning in August 2011. The move was made to bring Colegio Roosevelt in line with other IBO world schools that offer the three International Baccalaureate programs on one campus.

Emphasis in the High School (grades 9–12) is on preparation for entrance into colleges or universities in the US, Peru, or other countries. The curriculum is designed to meet both United States and Peruvian standards. All students follow the U.S. program of studies. Peruvian or international students who also wish to obtain a Peruvian certificate will take some additional courses in order to meet the Peruvian Ministry of Education's requirements.

Classes which vary in length meet for a minimum of 240 minutes per week the high school has a 7 period schedule with classes meeting 4 periods a week. Students may choose to obtain an International Baccalaureate Diploma, an Honors Diploma, a Peruvian Certificate, a United States diploma. If they obtain the Peruvian, then they automatically obtain the US. They can decide either to have the IB Diploma, or the Honors Diploma, which requires only 4 IB Courses, one at higher level, TOK, and the Service portion of CAS.

The School also offers a range of programs for students with special needs, including mild learning disabilities, remedial, and English-as-a-Second-Language. The American School of Lima is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and the Peruvian Ministry of Education.

National Arts Honor Society

The National Art Honor Society is an international organization established by the National Art Education Association in 1978 in the United States. It honors students who exhibit outstanding skills and engagement in visual arts to foster the use of art inside and outside of the school community. Their mission is to become an honor society that exemplifies excellence as global citizens through five pillars, (artistic abilities, character, creativity, leadership, and service), creating socially responsible solutions, and inspiring others through their work. The NAHS chapter at Colegio Franklin Delano Roosevelt was founded in 2015 by Jose Ignacio Onrubia and Nayoung Lee, who have led the chapter for two subsequent generations. The following generation was led by President Chaewon Hong. Their application process is considered as one of the longest and the most difficult in entry among the school's honor societies, although it is one of the newest to be established in school. The society plans and executes service projects that utilize visual arts. One of the projects that the chapter has led is the Hogar de Madres Project, where students volunteered to paint a large-scale mural at a local home of single teen mothers. The mural was executed at the library of the home to promote education by improving its ambiance. Recently, the chapter has held its September 2017 Induction ceremony, as well as its Contrast Exhibition. Inductees and pre-existing members have submitted artworks and organized an exhibition with the theme of "Contrast", which were all on a silent auction. With the expertise and mastery of various mediums demonstrated in the artworks, the auction has raised around 900 Peruvian Nuevo Soles, allowing the chapter to fund for several mural projects within the school community.
