Welcome to Middle School
Dear Parents,
Welcome to a new and exciting school year. I welcome once more our returning middle schoolers and give a warm welcome to our rising 6th graders. I will also like to welcome the new families that are joining us for this school year. I am pleased to be working with you in offering our students the best educational experience and environment they can find in Nicaragua. Our outstanding staff involved parents and dedicated students come together to make LIA Middle School a fantastic and exceptional place. I am looking forward to working with you and your children as we work toward an academically successful school year based on the values of our Catholic Faith.
Sincerely,
Jeanette Olivo
Middle School Principal

Engaging Instruction
Implements instructional strategies in a student-centered learning environment that supports student attainment of knowledge and skills through activities that promote focus, higher-level critical thinking skills, and meaningful learning experiences.
Sports
Your child can learn important life skills like leadership and dedication while playing an extracurricular sport, helping them form deeper friendships.
STREAM
An approach to learning that uses Science, Religion, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics as access points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue, and critical thinking.
Educational Trips
Throughout the school year, educational trips allow students to connect the classroom with real-life and authentic experiences.
Safe Environment Class
Students learn how to manage their emotions, solve problems, and make friends. They also identify dangerous situations they may encounter such as the threats of child abuse, drugs, alcohol, or any unhealthy and inappropriate behaviors that can harm their social, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being.
ESL & SSL Programs
English and Spanish as a Second Language Programs are available for students that need reinforcement and specialized language instruction. Once a student is ready to receive the regular curriculum, the services are reduced or discontinued.
Middle School Leadership Team
Communication is key for our team and we are always available during school hours to answer questions to ensure your child feels safe, supported, and cared for. Do not hesitate to contact us.
