Colegio Decroly Americano, is a bilingual educational institution that shapes well-rounded, critical, and creative students, prepared to face the challenges of a globalized world.

At the Early Learning Center (ELC), we believe the early years are a crucial time for building a child’s self-confidence and nurturing their curiosity. Our mission is to create a safe and caring environment where young learners can thrive, explore, and discover their full potential.
Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to:
Develop autonomy and independence, one step at a time.
We recognize that every child is unique. Our educational philosophy is centered on the student, building on their previous knowledge, interests, and experiences. By allowing them to explore and make meaningful connections with their surroundings, we create a learning process that is both significant and effective.
Our English immersion program stimulates cognitive, social, and emotional growth, while also supporting the development of fine and gross motor skills and creative expression. We are dedicated to fostering the skills and values necessary for success in the 21st century, including autonomy, empathy, and mutual respect.

We are excited to share some new programs at our Early Learning Center (ELC) designed to help our youngest students grow and thrive.
We’ve introduced French as a third language for our Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten students. It has been inspiring to see how motivated our kids are to learn and explore new ways to communicate. This program provides an enriching opportunity for early language development.
Our new Electives-“Voice & Choice” class periods are all about empowering students. This time allows them to choose their own activities and work with peers from different groups. This helps them build confidence and skills while exploring their passions. It’s a joy to watch them discover their unique talents and feel secure in the projects they take on.
ELC is more than just a school; we are a “family within a family,” providing a fun, nurturing environment where children can confidently begin their educational journey.
