Hi Tami, congrats on your move here! There are a couple school options on the Placencia Peninsula, if you are talking about the Peninsula International Academy, which is wildly popular with expats, here is the link to connect right to the school, you can also email them at info@PeninsulaInternationalAcademy.info.
If you are referring to a different school let us know! Thanks and see you in Belize soon!!
LauraHi Tami – it is such a small population in Placencia that the school options are limited – the only schools I know of other than above are St John’s for really young kids: http://www.anglicanschoolsbz.com/st-johns-memorial-preschool-placencia.php or Independence High School for high schoolers – this is located a water taxi ride away, mostly local kids, not as many expat kids – https://www.ihs.edu.bz/ The contact info for the schools is on these sites depending on how old your kids are.
The school year is roughly the same as the US. While this is not my area of expertise as I don’t have kids in school here, I can definitely direct you to the right places to get this info. If you are not on Facebook – this is an excellent source of village info – I highly recommend you join the group Placencia What’s Happening as this is a great place for questions about school, that will get you in direct contact wiht parents in the village. The Placencia Village Council is another good source of information and you can contact them here: https://www.facebook.com/PlacenciaVillageCouncil/ Thanks!
