Cochabamba Cooperative School Calvert (CCS), founded in 1954 by Eleanor Pol, is the first bilingual school in Cochabamba. In the early 1960s, several North American oil companies arrived in Bolivia and the American families wanted continuity for their children based on the all-American- English school for their children.
The innovative teaching method of long-distance/correspondence schooling aroused the interest of other Cochabambian families who also wanted Calvert’s new way of teaching. Calvert has become one of the most important educational-cultural centers in the city.
We, the members of Cochabamba Cooperative School community, accept the Common Trust. We agree to relate to one another and the school with respect, trust, honesty, fairness and kindness.
CCS was built with the belief that all students can have access to a true American education.
We believe that all students have exceptional potential, and that with the right support and guidance, they can achieve great success in school, post-secondary, and the workplace.

Under the accreditation granted by COGNIA and the Ministry of Education of Bolivia, Calvert offers the American and Bolivian diplomas, also offering various Advanced Placement (AP) courses, administered by the College Board, which consists of a standardized modality of the High School, equivalent to undergraduate college courses. After completing an AP class, students take the appropriate exam, which allows them to earn credits in American Universities.
