Colegio Nueva Granada was founded in 1938 by Frederic Dever, Doris de Samper and Irwin C. Byington . Its original name was "The Anglo-American School" and Mr. Gabriel Calderon was its first director. Colegio Nueva Granada teaches a U.S. college-preparatory curriculum. Students study for both the U.S. High School Diploma and the Colombian Bachillerato Diploma[1]. The majority of the classes are taught in English with a varied curriculum including Foreign Languages (Chinese and French), Sports, and Technology. The school's staff includes foreign as well as Colombian teachers. The AP system is offered to students, allowing them to gain college credits. The CNG student body in 2018 was made up 1,815 students of 33 nationalities (57% Colombian, 10% U.S. citizens, 22% dual citizenship (U.S-Colombian) and 11% from other countries). Moreover, the total number of employees was 388 (Faculty: 287, Administrative support: 56 and General Services: 45). All CNG teachers are certified professionals (additionally, 93 hold master's degrees and 3 have doctorate degrees). [1] Among the social projects in which students participate, Hogar Nueva Granada, Alianza Educativa and personal student Social Service Hours are the most important (as they are mandatory). Hogar Nueva Granada and Alianza Educativa are projects formed to help children and families in need with health and education programs to ensure their futures as Colombian citizens[2]. Yearly, students teach English to approximately 40 children, ages 7 to 14, from the surrounding neighborhoods of Juan XXIII and Bosque Calderón in Bogotá[2]. Others participate in the continuing education program for adults, 18 to 40 years old. This is a joint program, with Caja de Compensacion Familiar (CAFAM) with the help of teacher and student volunteers, to prepare adults to validate elementary school and also to get ready for ICFES exams in the higher levels of education[2][3]. House systemColegio Nueva Granada follows the House system tradition. Throughout elementary and middle school, students and teachers form part of one of the four houses (Falcons, Eagles, Hawks and Osprey). Houses compete in both academic and athletic tasks, crowning a winner at the end of the school year, depending on the overall points the house received. The winning team is awarded a trophy that is put in their corresponding school's hallway. In elementary school, students elect their House representatives. In third for House Representative. In fourth for Vice-President, and in fifth for Captain. Anyone can participate. They have to make posters and hang them in the hallway. At the final day of campaign they have to give a 1-minute speech in front of their grade telling why they should get elected. They should have a girl and a boy for each place. However, this tradition lasts only up to Middle School. Tri-AssociationThe school was the host of the Association of American Schools of Central America, Colombia, Caribbean and Mexico meeting in the week of October 13 of 2006. Around 1000 people from all over America came to the school. AthleticsIn 2017 the school's girls' soccer (football) team and girls' basketball team won the XXII Juegos Binacionales.[4] Notable Alumni
