General Director’s Message

Steven Day Eggers Jr.

We are a multicultural K-12 school which fuses Mexican and international education in the classroom. With this mix of systems and cultures we hope to empower young citizens with higher-order thinking and collaborative skills, as well as universal values for use in the global community. We thrive to promote and sustain a healthy culture of learning, which allows all our community members to feel connected to the purpose and work of our institution and behave in alignment with our values. We push our students to take leadership in their own learning. We make sure our students are engaged in their learning environment which allows them to participate with confidence and display agency over their own learning. We hope to have a positive impact on all our students and prepare them for the next transition in their learning. 

I  have lived in Mexico and worked in education for the last 13 years. Teaching and inspiring is my passion. I love what I do and hope to do it for many more years to come. My goal is to make sure ASP is a high performing school in all contexts. If you would like more information, or would like to form part of our community, don’t hesitate to contact us.
