LEARN

WITH PURPOSE

(DEVELOPING POTENTIAL)
We believe life is a continuous process of learning as life changes, we must be able to acquire the knowledge and skills needed to adapt and grow. We must practice and apply what we learn to be able to navigate life.

LEAD

WITH HEART

(BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS)
We have a responsibility to discover a plan for our lives and help others with theirs. Trusting relationships help you know when to lead and when to follow. Knowing how to set a plan and move in a direction is a key to individual and collective success. Living a purposeful life in this way moves us from dependence to independence to interdependence.

SERVE

WITH PASSION

(NURTURING COMPASSION)
We treat people with kindness, honesty and integrity. Encouraging students to positively contribute to their communities builds empathy and compassion. We must increase student awareness of community needs and local or global issues. Service-learning partnerships are collaborative, mutually beneficial and help students address community needs.

¿Sabías que las estructuras, las rutinas y nuestro propio comportamiento pueden convertirse en herramientas clave para brindarles a nuestros hijos seguridad, confianza y autonomía? 💛

En nuestro próximo Parenting Power Session para padres de Primaria, tendremos un espacio para reflexionar y aprender juntos sobre cómo acompañar a nuestros hijos en su crecimiento, creando entornos que les permitan sentirse seguros, tomar decisiones y desarrollar cada vez más independencia. 🫂🫶

📅 Lunes, 28 de septiembre
⏰ 7:15 a.m. – 8:30 a.m.
📍 Cafetorium

Porque acompañar también es saber cuándo sostener, cuándo guiar y cuándo darles el espacio para hacerlo por sí mismos. 💫

¡Los esperamos para seguir creciendo juntos como familia y comunidad AIS!

🚁 La tecnología también se aprende haciendo.

El pasado sábado vivimos en el Altamira International School una nueva jornada de las rondas clasificatorias del Skill Challenge Drone 2026, iniciativa organizada por la Secretaría de Educación de Barranquilla en el marco de Barranquilla: Territorio STEM.

Por segundo año consecutivo, nuestro colegio fue sede de este importante escenario que reúne talento, tecnología, creatividad y pensamiento estratégico. 🤖💡

En Altamira apostamos decididamente por una educación STEM, porque sabemos que experiencias como esta van mucho más allá de una competencia: son oportunidades para desarrollar habilidades como la resolución de problemas, el pensamiento crítico, la colaboración y la capacidad de enfrentarse a nuevos desafíos.

Y cuando estas experiencias trascienden nuestras aulas y se conectan con otros estudiantes, instituciones y actores de la ciudad, contribuimos a cimentar las habilidades que Barranquilla necesita para construir su futuro. 🚀

Hoy, desde nuestras aulas y desde escenarios como este, seguimos fortaleciendo nuestro compromiso como actor principal del ecosistema STEM de Barranquilla.

🏫 Learning, Reflecting & Growing Together 👓

It was a true privilege to welcome back Henry May, CEO of @coschool, to AIS for an enriching day of workshops and meaningful conversations with our leadership team and teachers.

Together, we explored powerful ideas about education, including what it means to be “warm demanders”, educators who combine high expectations with genuine care, connection, and support. 👨🏼‍🏫

For nearly 10 years, we have had the opportunity to work alongside Henry, learning from his expertise and sharing inspiring experiences with our students and educators. We are incredibly grateful for this ongoing collaboration and for the opportunity to keep growing together. 🤝🇨🇴

Here’s to continuing to learn, challenge ourselves, and transform education one conversation at a time. ✨
