Welcome to the Uruguayan American School
The Uruguayan American School (UAS) is a private college preparatory school enrolling approximately 300 international and host country students in Nursery through Grade 12. Our mission is to prepare students to be successful in universities worldwide by offering a US curriculum tailored to individual needs, and promoting belonging, diversity and academic excellence.
The Uruguayan American School was founded in 1958 by a group of Uruguayan and American citizens residing in Montevideo to provide a US-style education in Uruguay. Most students were American citizens or Uruguayans whose parents chose this kind of education for their children.
The school is tuition supported, non-profit private day school offering a non-sectarian, co-educational program from Nursery to Grade twelve for students from a multitude of backgrounds.
