Math Club for Olympic Competitions

Colegio Bilingüe New Horizons math program enables our students to develop higher-level math reasoning abilities and strategies through a diverse and integrated program. The activities that are implemented favor the resolution of mathematical problems that involve the use of various approaches, which translate into the use of interpretation, reasoning, teamwork, use of online resources, logic, and computer programs.

The program fosters the connection of mathematics with other subject areas, as well as its impact on our lives. Our learning outcomes are defined to give students the necessary competencies for this 21st century. It is based on the Common Core standards, the MINERD Curriculum Design, and international standards for mathematics, such as those of the College Board.

Our program is flexible, allowing teachers to expand or adapt according to the abilities of their students. It also encompasses financial and business skills, allowing our students to participate at a competitive level in various activities nationwide.
