Introduction

Belize Elementary School is a private day primary school on Princess Margaret Drive in Belize City. The school presents an American‑based curriculum adapted to Belizean context and is linked administratively with Belize High School on the same site. It operates at elementary (primary) level and its governing information appears in the national Ministry of Education directory. Instruction and school communications are in English; the school's wider academic programme includes modern language study with Spanish identified as a foreign language in the institution's curricular materials. Published school information and fees pages indicate standard academic facilities such as science laboratory provision (a lab fee is listed) and an on‑site cafeteria operating a Meals Plus account system. The school's stated mission emphasises STEM, the arts and athletics alongside academic development, and its history page records its origins as St Catherine Elementary (established 1883) and relocation and reconstitution as Belize Elementary School in the 1990s.
