Colegio Bolivar was founded in 1947 as a private, coeducational, non-confessional and non-profit foundation. Ever since it has provided a bilingual, bicultural and binational type education to the children of North American families and other foreign residents in Cali, as well as to those Colombian nationals seeking this type of education for their children. Currently, the School offers a U.S.-style college preparatory education in English and in Spanish from Preprimary through grade 12 to 1300+ students, comparable and compatible with the one offered by the best schools in this category, in Colombia, United States and abroad. Annually, between 30-40% of Bolivar’s graduates attend post-secondary education in the U.S. and other countries.
