Colegio Jesuitinas Stella Maris

The school is a Catholic institution founded on the charism of Santa Cándida María de Jesús, aiming to educate the "entire person" through a focus on autonomy, creativity, and commitment. Its pedagogical approach is rooted in the theory of Multiple Intelligences and emphasizes values such as service, freedom, responsibility, simplicity, and solidarity. The educational mission seeks to form autonomous, creative, and socially committed individuals who are prepared to act as agents of change in society.

The school provides a comprehensive academic path covering Infant Education, Primary Education, Compulsory Secondary Education (ESO), and a private Baccalaureate program. The curriculum integrates a bilingual approach in Spanish and English from the early stages and offers a Dual Baccalaureate program, allowing students to obtain a United States High School Diploma. Pedagogical pillars include Cooperative Learning, Early Stimulation (for ages 0-6), a Culture of Thinking, and Learning-Service projects. Religious education and pastoral activities, such as daily reflections and sacramental preparation, are also central to the academic experience.

The Department of Guidance works with the school's leadership to implement the Plan for Attention to Diversity, which serves as a reference for all inclusive educational practices. This department coordinates with teams focused on co-education, coexistence, and integral ecology to provide quality support, utilizing tools such as school mediation and emotional intelligence programs. Furthermore, the school maintains a Plan for Equality and provides teachers with digital resources and records to facilitate personalized attention for students.

The school manages an admissions process for its various stages, with specific documentation and application procedures for Primary and Secondary education. Interested families can access information regarding the enrollment process, including specific forms for Primary and Secondary levels, through the school's website. The school also provides information on the sale of books and materials for all levels, from Infant Education to Baccalaureate.

The school's governing body, the School Council, meets at least once per trimester, with mandatory meetings scheduled at the beginning and end of the school year. Key annual milestones include the approval of the School Plan in November, the provision of enrollment information in the first week of May, and the presentation of the end-of-year report in the last week of June.

The campus features modern facilities that are reviewed and updated annually, including a large gymnasium with a climbing wall and five sports courts (three for football, one for volleyball, and one for basketball). Academic resources include three computer labs, three fully equipped laboratories for Physics, Chemistry, and Natural Sciences, an Engineering Drawing classroom, and a library housing over 5,000 volumes. The school also possesses a 700-seat auditorium, and the entire center is equipped with digital whiteboards and Wi-Fi connectivity.

The school offers ALCOR, a Christian-based extracurricular program for the use of free time, which is available to students after their First Communion and continues throughout their lives. Activities take place on Tuesdays after school, providing opportunities for communal meals, nature outings, and group bonding, with the possibility for students over 18 to serve as monitors. Additionally, the school provides services such as a morning classroom (Aula Matinal) and a dining hall.
