Two Diplomas
Opening the door to the best universities in Brazil and overseas
Avenues São Paulo has a dual-diploma program. All students graduate with an American diploma accredited by NEASC, one of the leading accrediting agencies in the United States. In addition, Brazilian nationals complete the required Brazilian national curriculum and graduate with both American and Brazilian diplomas. International students with sufficient Portuguese fluency may also complete the Brazilian national curriculum and graduate with both diplomas.
An Integrated Brazilian Program
We take Brazilian educational standards as seriously as we do international ones. By taking an integrated curricular approach to instruction in Portuguese and English, our students attain a balanced mastery of both languages and reap the extensive cognitive benefits of bilingualism. All of the Brazilian national curricular components of Portuguese are included in our language curriculum at each grade level. We do not see English and Portuguese as belonging to separate silos but as two important facets of an Avenues education.
