Let's celebrate together this milestone !
On April 14, 2011 we celebrated another milestone at the Groundbreaking ceremony for IMAGINE Cumbayá. IMAGINE Cumbayá will continue to offer families a high quality early childhood program. The new location in San Juan Alto is more accessible for families who reside or work in the valley and its surrounding areas. We hope that they will later consider Academia Cotopaxi as the school for their children. IMAGINE CUMBAYA Opening September 2011 |

We thank you for joining our Magical Evening !! |

April 5th was “One day without shoes.” The “One Day Without Shoes” campaign started 4 years ago. It is an initiative to draw attention to the fact that many people around the world go barefoot due to poverty. It was brought to Academia Cotopaxi on the initiative of 2 9th Grade students, Julia Simas and Mariana Politti. In addition to raising awareness by going without shoes, the HS Students are also asking that shoes be donated. Any shoes that you wish to donate can be dropped off in the HS Office.
