Costa Rica was one of the first nations in Central and South America to offer free public education. On average, there are about twenty-eight students in a classroom. Students are required to wear uniforms from ages 6 to 15, and supply their own lunches and snacks. The school year in Costa Rica runs from February to December. Students have vacation for about two months, from December to February, and a few weeks off in July.
In addition to the regular subjects–Spanish, math, and science–all Costa Rican schools now teach students English and computer science.
