The American School Foundation

What is it that makes a great writer? And how many times does a journalist write a single note? Those were some of the Middle School students’ questions last February 17, when they  gathered in a Zoom meeting to hear what the Washington Post's correspondent for Mexico and Central America, Mary Beth Sheridan, had to share. 

Up and down, left to right, and all the way to the finish line! The virtual Special Olympics, which took place last Saturday, January 16, were a success. It featured 27 ASF students who donated their time and skills to drive a series of classes that made us all sweat.

The time to shine is here! And so did a bunch of ASF students during our ASF@Home Virtual Talent Show, which happened on the last couple of days of classes in December, featuring lots of singing, dancing, pogo-stick jumping, and some magic!

While the pandemic is pushing people apart, ASF Debate strives to connect students more than ever before by bringing back the annual ASOMEX Halloween Debate Tournament. On its 10th anniversary, we celebrated a decade worth of discourse by facing the best schools from Mexico City against each other, and even some visitors from Peru. With ten schools, 120 debaters, and the help of our wonderful teachers and administration, we shined the light on what the world considers taboo.
