About Our Project

One of Mexico's most serious problems is inequality, that leads kids to live very different realities, and to face diverse educational opportunities.

 

 Highlands International School’s second graders used Technology and Design Thinking to connect with other second graders from a low-income school, Mano Amiga Chalco, to build together solutions for a real problem encountered in their institution which keeps them from having the same opportunities as them.

About Our Institutions

Located on the South of Mexico City, an International Catholic School that opened in 1995. It has attained international recognition, such as AdvancED´s constant improvement re-accreditation, and the Apple Distinguished School distinction due to the successful inclusion of technology within the teaching and learning process.
