Ready to expand your child’s learning experience? Nord Anglia Education’s Study Abroad program (NAE Abroad) is the perfect choice; intended to provide an experience for NAE learners from around the world, including students from Brazil.
Studying abroad may be one of the most beneficial and exciting experiences for students. They get to experience a new country with incredible new outlooks, customs, and activities, while also immersing in NAE’s global reach and world-class teaching.
Every year, thousands of students move to the United States to expand their education, learning experiences, and bilingual skills. Education is the centerpiece of any study abroad trip—it is, after all, a study abroad program—and choosing the right school is a very important factor. Happily, Nord Anglia offers prestigious boarding programs in the USA:
North Broward Preparatory
Located near the beach in beautiful Boca Raton, Florida, this school has been recognized by Apple as a “distinguished school” for its innovation, leadership, and educational excellence. The state-of-the-art residence is inside the campus, lodging students from many different nationalities.
“The thing I feel most proud of is that personal growth where I have learned to take responsibilities of my own actions and to be independent. North Broward offers all the opportunities you need to have your best year academically,” said Sergio, Class of 2022 Boarding Student.
North Broward is home to an Arts Academy including a performing arts diploma; award winning robotic teams such as the H2O Bots, winners of Viable Engineering at the World Championship Underwater Robotics; debate national winners at the Tournament of Champions; and of great athletes like our current Baseball team, recently crowned as state champions. The campus was thoughtfully designed with collaborative spaces that include a Fab Lab, a fabrication laboratory in which students can turn their ideas into new products, a global wellness center, arts facilities, and amazing sports fields that include: five tennis courts, three swimming pools, a lighted football and soccer stadium, a baseball field, a basketball and volleyball multipurpose court, yoga studios, and an athletic training center.

The Village School
Located in Houston’s prestigious Energy Corridor, The Village School is in the top-100 best private American schools. It is well known for its strong STEAM program, robotics, computer coding, and a variety of extracurricular clubs.
“The most important lesson I’ve learned is to schedule your time for studying. Teachers are always there to support you and the staff at the dorms are always for you. Enjoy this experience because it’s a great experience,” said Pedro, Class of 2023.
The Village School team secured 3rd place at the 50th OTC Energy Challenge at The Offshore Technology Conference – which is the largest event in the world for the oil and gas industry. Most recently, a group of students created a self-charging prosthetic sleeve powered by kinetic energy, winning the MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) Challenge of 2019. The experiential learning at the campus incorporates real-world opportunities through a unique internship program and an innovative entrepreneurship diploma; offering a gateway for students to make decisions about their career choice and develop business skills. Students are encouraged to explore and experience different career paths, even if they are unsure of what field they want to pursue, through a multi-faceted approach.
Boarding students stay in the beautiful and modern residence located at the heart of the campus. Learn more about The Village School.
