Instiuto Nueva Escuela (INE) is a non-profit organization dedicated to transforming Puerto Rico's public education system through the Montessori philosophy and methodology. The Montessori public education project was born 25 years ago as a community initiative in the Juan Ponce de León school in the Juan Domingo neighborhood in Guaynabo. Throughout the years, the project has demonstrated measurable success and palpable impact with 0% school desertion, 0% drug incidents, and 0% severe violence in its schools. Each of the schools has transformed itself into a peace oasis in communities where 75% of families live under the poverty line. 

Achievements

INE firmly believes that, school to school, we can achieve PEACE in Puerto Rico.
