Ecuador Exchange Returns for 2022-23

Chris Nolan
After being put on hold due to Covid 19, the exchange between Burr and Burton Academy and Unidad Educativa Santana, BBA's sister school in Cuenca, Ecuador, is back on for the 2022-23 school year. 

On September 9, fourteen students from Santana will arrive to begin their three week immersion into the United States.  The first two weeks will be spent at BBA where they will live with host families, attend classes and experience a variety of cultural and educational activities.  Their final week will be spent in New York City to round out their experience. 

In June, twenty students will accompany BBA faculty members Chris Nolan, Pia Nolan, and Katie Bove for an amazing three weeks in Ecuador.  The trip will include two weeks living in Cuenca, a colonial city high in the Andes Mountains, and the group will spend time on the pacific coast and in the Amazon jungle.

The partnership between BBA and Santana began in 2012 and has expanded to offer students from both schools the opportunity to spend a full semester studying abroad. If you would like more information about the Ecuador exchange, please contact Chris Nolan at cnolan@burrburton.org.
