In 1998, The Anglo expanded to form Churchill School, a bicultural and forward‑looking school offering classes from maternal through the third year of secondary. In 2003, Churchill College opened to upper secondary education, preparing adolescents and young adults for professional careers with high standards.

Waitlist
|
Waitlist The waiting list is for Preschool, Primary, Secondary, and Bachillerato. Registration is essential to begin the admissions process and must be completed accurately; it does not guarantee admission. Only one registration per candidate is allowed; if more than one is submitted, the last one will be considered. Incomplete registrations will be canceled. Admissions evaluates candidates holistically and inclusion resources are limited. Families can expect a response within seven to ten business days. For the current cycle (2025-2026), contact Azul Bañuelos at [email protected] if you want to register for that cycle. | Waitlist — |
