In the last 8 years, we've seen a lot of new building construction and services in our area, and private schools have gotten much better. Many schools are bigger now or offer new services that weren't available before, like sending trained babysitters to help parents who need to travel.
Delfin School used to be just a small elementary school, but now it has a high school too in Playas del Coco. The school buildings are modern, and there are lots of places for kids to play safely, including soccer fields and areas for outdoor activities.
In the past, Liberia was the only place around here to find a good private school. But now, there are at least 4 great private schools close by for children of all ages. This makes things easier for parents and families who are moving to our tropical paradise.
