Learning at FDR

Colegio Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the American School of Lima, is an independent, international school, providing a college preparatory program in English for students from age 3 through grade 12.

Learning at Colegio Roosevelt is grounded in our Mission. We nurture a passion for learning, foster integrity and provide opportunities for our students to understand how to and to actually create socially responsible solutions. 

Learning embodies and engenders our Core Values and is guided by our Learning Principles. 

Learning is organized around standards that develop the understanding, knowledge, skills and dispositions necessary for all students to be successful.  It is all connected through our transdisciplinary skills:

Learning draws upon the best of educational models and research. It is student-centered and allows opportunity for inquiry, choice, creation, collaboration, reflection, and sharing through diverse exhibitions with peers, family, and our community and world. 

Learning is designed to reflect our value of diverse learners as we seek to provide appropriate support and challenge for all.

Learning at Colegio Roosevelt acknowledges the importance of intellectual, physical and emotional balance by providing a diversity of co-curricular sports, clubs and activities.

Our aim is that students will consistently engage in diverse learning experiences in pursuit of educational excellence.
