Our History

Our beginnings

Guided by their vocation and teaching tradition, Maria Mercedes de Brigard and Leopoldo Garca decided, in 1988, to materialize their dream of years: to create a school to contribute, from there, to the construction of a better world. With another family member, Lucila de Brigard, whose experience in preschool education was of vital importance from the beginning, on September 6, Gimnasio La Montaña opened its doors for the first time in a small colonial-looking house, a small student body of sixty-five boys and girls.

Since then, and year after year, the College has doubled its student community to the point that it was necessary to find a larger space to meet the new demands. Eventually, the school found its permanent residence in a safe country environment the North of the city.
