Let us all celebrate this visual testimony to the commitment, engagement, and creativity invested in the process! ✨

MET students achieve more than they may have thought possible. We believe there is no limit to what students can achieve socially, personally and academically. This year, our students’ academic results reflect our shared commitment to excellence.

In 2019, the MET undertook an important educational initiative in partnership with Framingham State, to recruit Masters level candidates from the MET and the Panama Association of International Schools (PAIS) and create a first cohort here in Panama. Within a relatively short period of time this academic project came to fruition. The initial degree offered was a Master of Education (M.Ed.) with a concentration in International Teaching.

The Panamanian Cultural Week is considered one of the most distinguished projects held annually at the Metropolitan School of Panama. Since opening in 2011, every November the MET family joins in the celebrations, dedicating a week to learning about the customs and traditions of Panama, where all members of our educational community have the opportunity to participate in interesting workshops and a folkloric gala, paying tribute to the host country.

After 9 years in the City of Knowledge, we spent the week saying goodbye. Trucks pulling in and out, and workers all through the building. With each day that passed, the building got a little bit emptier. We raised the flag on Monday. Then lowered it and packed it away safely for its trip to Green Valley. We heard some poignant memories and reflections from those members of our family who have been here since Day One in August 2011.

Outstanding results achieved by MET IB Diploma students for the 2019-2020 academic year.

Although this year's event looked different to previous years, here at the MET we were determined to ensure that the graduation ceremony was a special moment for our Class of 2020 graduates.

It is a dream for artists to train in one of the most prestigious performing arts schools in the world. After a long wait, this dream came true for me at Julliard.

The performing arts are creative keys that can unlock your child’s imagination and significantly transform their education.

Over the last months, we have worked closely with the American Chamber of Commerce and Glasswing Panama to partake in their San Miguelito Leadership Program. The program's aim is for organizations in the private sector to offer mentorship and training to leaders in public schools in San Miguelito, and benefit children through education and community development.

Being a participant of the Juilliard-Nord Anglia Drama P.D. for the Performing Arts was unlike anything I have ever experienced before.

For the second consecutive year the Metropolitan School of Panama, in alliance with the PROED foundation, had the privilege of hosting Panamanian school teachers in a noble project that, since 2017, the PROED foundation carries out through its Diploma program in Innovative Strategies. The objective of the program is to create a memorable learning experience for teachers from schools in different regions of the country, which directly benefits their students and education in Panama. This program is endorsed by the Ministry of Education.

We are proud to share that our 2019 graduates achieved exceptional results in this year’s International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IB DP). For the 2018-2019 academic school year, MET DP graduates achieved a pass rate of 92%, significantly higher than the international average of 80%.

Being a part of Nord Anglia Education has allowed the MET a unique opportunity to collaborate with the world's leader in performing arts education: The Juilliard School.

Seeing the last day departure, the Move Up ceremonies and various awards given, I saw our MET students in a really good place – reflecting on a year of learning, of friendship, and of challenges mostly met.

Learn about our collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

Tomorrow, we hand diplomas and give appreciative applause to the MET Class of 2019.
