Alexander von Humboldt Schule Montréal

The Alexander von Humboldt Schule Montréal - German International School ("Schule" in German) was founded in 1981. It is located in Baie-d'Urfé (Quebec) in the suburbs of Montreal. In 2008 the school had 300 students. It offers a German/Québécois Curriculum.[1]

History

The school was founded to offer a German education to immigrants from Germany to Quebec. Today the school serves a much greater community (e.g. German, Canadians, Americans, Italians, etc.). For this reason the school was officially renamed from Alexander von Humboldt German School to Alexander von Humboldt Schule - Montréal (German International School, Deutsche Internationale Schule, École internationale allemande) in 2004.

The school is funded through school fees, donations and support from the Federal Government of the Federal Republic of Germany.
