Complementary Programs
Colegio Inglés provides complementary programs in addition to our established developmental areas of education. These complementary programs are another way to help students become a responsible citizen of the world, giving them a stronger foundation for the future.
Music
Our Music Program aims to provide a formal music education from Preschool to Middle School, allowing all students to develop their talent and participate in ensembles such as Symphony Orchestra, a Concert Band, and a Concert Choir. Children have a natural attraction to music, which also plays a part in brain development, learning, mood, and health. In addition, music education contributes to students’ aesthetic sensitivity, management of emotions, and appreciation for the rewards of a collaborative effort.
Art
The art program provides opportunities for students to communicate visually with aesthetic appreciation. Students participate in observation, imagination, invention, problem-solving, reflection, and decision-making as they engage in creative activities utilizing various artistic techniques and materials.

Physical Education
KI – 9th
The program stimulates the physical development of students through sports and formative and recreational activities to achieve a healthy, balanced, and productive life based on the development of values, habits, and physical abilities that culminate in the formation of responsible citizens.
Students participate in recreational activities and practices with technical bases. This exercise contributes to the physical condition and coordination capacities and the acquisition of cultural values and healthful habits. As students progress through the grade levels, there is increased emphasis on technical and conceptual knowledge.
Physical education reinforces knowledge of the body, providing opportunities to apply physical skills and improve technical and tactical understanding to develop precision and complexity in movement, teamwork, and problem-solving, reaffirming healthy habits and civic values.
