Talk:San Pedro Garza García

Interesting Places
Thought it would be relevant to write or discuss about this town's relevant features, places or monuments. --rolandog 19:16, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Plaza de la Alianza
Does someone know if they're called 'Tubos de la Alianza' or 'Plaza de la Alianza'? Out of a blog post I stumbled upon, I wrote this post for the Google Earth community. I would like to document the interesting monuments or places in this town. --rolandog 19:16, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Could anyone list the luxury stores located in San Pedro? e.g Louis Vuitton.

--

Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Zegna, Burberry, Furla, Roche Bobois, Bang & Olufsen, Prada, Versace, Hugo Boss, Armani, etc etc, you'll find almost any store here. I don't have a link as a source, but I live in S.P.

Article requires clean-up
This article is a disaster and a shame. It has information that is not current, it has outrageous uncited claims like "(Prepa Tec Campus Santa Catarina) includes an extensive list of the most notable prominent families in San Pedro". Promintent in what respect? Why does an encyclopedia care? There are whole paragraphs that look like they are school ads! UDEM offers similar programs to ITESM? Similar in what way? Certainly not in quality or in its recognition! "Citation Needed" is not a proper verifiable source. This is how an article about a municipality should be written like, particularly about a municipality like this one. There is a plaque in Av. Alfonso Reyes saying that San Pedro is "the pride of Mexico"... but this article is a shame to have it in wikipedia. Hari Seldon 16:34, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Come on people, you can do better than that
This article needs to get on a roll (Fort Brooke (talk) 06:56, 9 August 2010 (UTC))

 * Agree. This article is terrible. It almost reads like an article from the socialite magazine, Sierra Madre. (luisdaniel12 talk 13:16, 9 August, 2013 (EST))

Education section
Until we can get some real data on notability, I removed this brochure-sounding text from the Education section. (Heroeswithmetaphors)   talk  17:51, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

San Pedro has some of the best private schools in Mexico. The following are some of the most important Private Schools in this municipality.

The American School Foundation of Monterrey (ASFM), a private school in Mexico, offers a non-religious, and mixed-gender co-educational schooling experience. ASFM provides a U.S.-type education to international and Mexican students. While the school offers a curriculum similar to U.S. schools in many respects and is fully accredited in the U.S.

Colegio Inglés is an independent, privately owned, co-educational school with grades from Pre-Kindergarten through 9th grade. Colegio Inglés is accredited by the State Department of Mexican Education (SEP) and is an active member of the Association of American Schools of México (ASOMEX), also Colegio Inglés has international accreditations such as: the NEASC (New England Association of Schools and Colleges) and the CIS (Council of International Schools).

Instituto San Roberto (ISR) is a mixed-gender school which offers trilingual education that ensures that students communicate with clarity, purpose and understanding of audience in Spanish, English, and French. Instituto San Roberto is accredited by Meritas Family of Schools and one of the two schools in the city accredited by SACS (Southern Association of Colleges and Schools). Instituto San Roberto has grades from Pre-Kindergarten through 9th grade.

The American Institute of Monterrey (AIM) is a mixed-gender school which offers a bilingual education from lower preschool to junior high. In 2002, the American Institute of Monterrey received its accreditation by the New England Association of Schools (NEASC) and the European Council of International Schools (ECIS).

The Legion of Christ, a strong and growing Catholic order among Mexico’s elite but with recent credibility problems, holds three different private Catholic schools in this suburb. The first two offer a bilingual same-sex educational program. Instituto Irlandes de Monterrey is an all-boys prep school and C.E.C.V.A.C. is the all-girls version of the same. Both schools offer pre-school (Irish Valley), primary, secondary and preparatory (Bachillerato Anahuac) schools. Colegio Himalaya is the Legion’s new pre-school and primary school which offers a bilingual co-educational program. All three of these schools require daily formal uniforms and are part of Oak International Academies.

Other schools like, Euroamerican School of Monterrey and Colegio Inglés offer other excellent bilingual programs.

The Liceo de Monterrey, a Catholic school under the administration of Opus Dei, is one of the most distinguished all-girls and all-boys schools of the country. It offers: trilingual education (Spanish, English, and French), the KUMON math system, and SOI -a learning/studying system-, and -the same as ITESM- the IB Diploma Programme for high school.


 * I agree the education section is mostly filled with brochure-sounding rhetoric, but it now basically does not exist. I'll re-include some of the schools listed here and edit the content. Also, so sorry to say, but with the closing of the Rio Missouri campus, ASFM is no longer in San Pedro. Luisdaniel12 (talk) 22:51, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
