Our partner school is located in the historic Old Town District, where the San Diego of today first took root. The Old Town Depot, just moments from the school, is the hub of all the town’s bus, trolley and train connections. The course centre has 8 classrooms, a student lounge with drinks machine and a small library. A reading room can be used outside of lessons, and you can access the Internet and your emails free of charge with the computers and WiFi connection available to students.
