Recife - School Report Question and Answers

How would you rate the school's support and welcome/integration of new students and their families, and why?

This was lumpy, but well meaning. And we happened to arrive in the middle of a lot of change in the administration. But it was a pretty rough landing. Once the school realized how hard it had been, one employee in particular stepped up and tried to make everything easier. They planned on giving the kids a buddy the first day, but that didn't happen, and the kids were automatically placed in classes that are for Brazilian nationals, causing a lot of discomfort and confusion the first day. I believe that's gotten better, but the school doesn't get a lot of non-Brazilian students, so they aren't always aware of how much help an international family could use. - Mar 2023
