WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO

As the only school in Panama authorized to offer the International Baccalaureate (IB) Continuum in English, our outstanding education is a passport to the world. At the MET, we nurture the mind, imagination, and global values of each child, encouraging them to think internationally and make a difference in our world.

Your child will be challenged and supported through an individualized approach to learning. Alongside their academic achievement, our students continually grow their problem-solving, resilience, creativity, well-being, and global citizenship — so they’re ready for whatever the future may bring.

Everyone belongs and has a place in our school! Your child will become part of a lively, welcoming family of many cultures and nationalities, joined together by friendship and education, as we all work together to prepare for a rapidly changing world.
