Our missions

Escuela Santa Ana is an independent, nonsectarian, day school committed to academic excellence. Our mission is to educate our students to be caring, balanced, responsible and engaged global citizens who apply the skills they learn to be innovative critical thinkers with a lifelong love for learning. In addition to our academic programs, a high value is placed on environmental, physical and social-emotional learning. Our programs foster independence, creativity, action, reflection and leadership.

Our Community

Escuela Santa Ana is a small school located within the gates of Rancho Santana. Our little school sits just steps away from some of the best surf in Central America, within the gates of one of the top resorts in the area. The community is family friendly, and the opportunities for surfing and being outdoors are about as good as it gets. We are surrounded by 2,700 acres of tropical dry forest, with over 21 km of trails and access to 5 private beaches; it is indeed a very special place to live and raise children. Our community is truly special; it gives space for children to learn and grow in an environment that supports a love of nature, activity, connection and protection for the joys of childhood.

Our Programs

Escuela Santa Ana serves grades PreK 3/4 – 12th. We operate multi-level classrooms in both our Lower and Upper School. We maintain small class sizes for more individualized instruction and we limit enrollment space in order to do that. We use a variety of online and in-print curricula designed for specific grade levels and multi-age classrooms. Our foundational curriculum is accredited by the Pennsylvania Board of Education which allows for confidence in transitioning between international curricula and what we do here at ESA.
