To mark the thirtieth anniversary of the school, special guests invited to the occasion left their messages of congratulation for the school.  They are as follows:

On behalf of the British Embassy and the Ambassador in Colombia, John Dew, I express my best wishes to all the students who will benefit from the Knowledge Centre. Thank you for inviting me to this special event. Congratulations! Happy Birthday!

Aware of the importance of supporting the professional development and future of our students, a number of activities were carried out during the past week as part of the School’s Career Guidance Programme.

During this week, we had the opportunity to attend university fairs and activities where the guests were representatives from both national and international universities. Students had the chance to have direct contact with the representatives, asking questions and obtaining information about the courses and universities of their choice. We attended the national universities fair and the CIS university tour, the latter being attended by representatives from universities in the United States, Switzerland, Canada and Spain; these events took place on the premises of the Karl C. Parrish School.
