Colegio Alemán de Guatemala | Deutsche Schule Guatemala
About us
The Deutsche Schule Guatemala has more than 125 years of experience educating capable and open-minded individuals who contribute to their communities. Throughout its history, it has established itself as a place of encounter and a bridge between Germany and Guatemala - a cultural and academic space based on both educational systems that integrates their traditions and offers a trilingual education.
As part of this legacy, the school presents its 125-year history book, a work that captures its trajectory, values, and educational impact, as well as its role in connecting both countries. Today, more than 1,200 students are educated in German, Spanish, and English, with the opportunity to earn both the Guatemalan Bachillerato en Ciencias y Letras and the German Abitur, opening doors to universities in Guatemala, Germany, and around the world.
