School of the Nations of

Brasilia

School of the Nations is a private, not-for-profit, coeducational, bilingual (English & Portuguese) international day school that offers an educational program from Nursery through Grade 12. We have approximately 780 students enrolled in our two campuses. Students in Nursery through Grade 1 study at our Early Childhood Campus, and those in Grades 2 through 12 at our Main Campus. Our school year begins in July, following the international academic calendar, not the Brazilian. School of the Nations was founded in 1980 by four Bahá’í educators and is governed by the School Board. We are a Bahá’í-inspired school and cultivate in students the values of the oneness of God, of humankind, and of religion; unity in diversity; the elimination of all forms of prejudice; equality of men and women; the essential nobility of man; the independent investigation of truth; and service to humankind as the primary purpose of life. Our bilingual curriculum is rigorous and taught by highly qualified faculty. Our classes are limited to twenty-five students each. From Early Childhood through Grade 8, approximately half of the subjects are taught in Portuguese and the others in English. In High School, students choose one of two Programs –International or Bilingual.
