Hello All,
Does anyone have any first hand experience about this school? What it is like to work here with a dependent middle school aged child. Is it safe? How is the cost of living? What is the work life balance? How long or short is the school day? How are the living accommodations?
Thank you.
International School Nido de Aguilas Information Please

Nido has got a great package and lifestyle balance. Santiago is safe and there is much to do. Some people live up in the mountains and get to hike, ski, rock climb all weekend long, other folks live in providencia and el golf, who do more of the "going out" thing.
The school is going through some big transitions now: Don Bergman is leaving as director after 12 years, so is the HS principal and VP. There are a large group of teachers who've been there for quite some time, and some are moving on, fearing what is coming. Others are feeling really excited about the change and are ready for the shake-up.
The school doesn't demand too much from its teachers, and most people live very balanced lives. That-being-said, they're still not used to having large groups of new teachers, and don't have so many procedures in place to help them get settled at the school.
