Welcome to El Camino Academy's website which has been created to reflect what Christ is doing in our corner of the world and to give information which will help others to be involved in prayer, service, and participation in our community life. We welcome former, current, and future students, teachers, family members, and friends to join us in celebrating the work God is doing IN and THROUGH El Camino Academy (ECA) in Bogotá, Colombia.

There are still many items in both ECA Lost and Founds, in the library (notebooks, textbooks, folders, etc.) and in the principal’s secretaries’ office (uniforms, non - ECA clothes, plastic containers, lunch boxes, etc). If parents or students do not claim them, we will be selling them after Sat, Jun 2.

Students have the chance to check both Lost and Founds every Friday all day until the end of the school year. Lost and Found items will also be placed on tables outside of the building the last two weeks of school, so that you can check if you lost something. It will cost $500 for each item claimed.

The topic for summer school this year has been taken from the Dr. Seuss story Oh, the Places You’ll Go!

Middle school students will work through weekly units and write about interesting places in Colombia.

Discounted summer school prices during May will be:
$110.000 for one week, $205.000 for two weeks, and $ 300.000 for three weeks.

During June, regular prices will be:
$120.000 for one week, $215.000 for two weeks, and $310.000 for three weeks.

Pay in the cashier’s office. If you are interested in transportation, contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

We will be needing empty shoe and cereal boxes for crafts that we are going to do. If you have any of these items, please send them to the ECALI office.

A special English immersion week, Jul 30 - Aug 3, is open to ECA students only to start practicing English before school starts. Classes will be 8am-12:30 and this more activity-oriented time only costs $50.000/child.
