I am going to enrol my 5 year old in the Nueva Vida school in la Mulatta. The school is very nice, beautiful gardens set out almost like a park. The classrooms are quite large and the the majority of the classrooms each have their own bathroom. For the older kids, each subject has a different teacher. There is an onsite library and computer room. The principal, (head mistress) speaks fluent English and is very nice. The price is very good as well, US$55 per month, (inscription is US$50). There are 3 different prices depending on the age of the child...sorry, but I can't remember the other two prices for the older kids. If you pay a full year in advance then you do not have to pay the inscription fee.
I really like the feeling of this school. Although my daughter is only 5, she has been going to the Cadin school in Islabon for the last 2 years, and we decided that it was time for a change. Our daughter also goes to the Nueva Vida school in Bombita in the mornings, (she is a busy 5 year old, one school in the morning, another in the afternoon....by HER choice I might add!! I am not a slave driver!). She is very happy as she will go to the new school but can still go to the other one in Bombita.
So it might be worth your while taking a look at the Nueva Vida school in la Mulatta. There are around 300 students, with about 20 children to each class. The children are Dominican and International, a nice mix.
