Nicaragua Spanish Schools HISTORY . . . NSS started  as a development project in 1995 to open the Nicaraguan Spanish school industry to the international marketplace. NSS's own schools started operation in 1997 as a model of sustainable development, demonstrating how local Nicaraguan resources could create competitive market value while offering fair-paying income opportunities for productive local labor. The NSS project also helped support community-based social, cultural and educational development programs in the local communities where the schools operated, and supported the Instituto Henry George education project in Managua (now the Centro Educativo Internacional Henry George). As a result of the NSS project, thousands of international students have been attacted to study in Nicaragua since 1995, and the positive economic impact of the NSS project on the local communities where NSS schools have operated has been significant. The culmination of the NSS project was the transfer of all three NSS schools to local Nicaraguan ownership in 2006. As of 2013, there are at least 20 Spanish school programs in seven Nicaraguan departments, owned and/or managed and staffed by personnel who formerly worked with and/or benefitted directly from the NSS program model.

Nicaragua Spanish Schools TODAY . . . NSS is now operating a Spanish language and cultural immersion program in Managua in the centrally located Centro Educativo Internacional Henry George ("CEIHG"). The goal of the NSS full-immersion progam is to offer an innovative and engaging learning experience for international students of all ages and language levels who are interested in rapidly improving their Spanish language and intercultural communication skills, while also learning about the social, political and economic realities of life in Nicaragua, Latin America, and developing countries in general. See the NSS Program description for more info.
