Academia Interamericana Metro

The Academia Interamericana Metro was founded in 1928 as a private and religious school in Santurce, Puerto Rico by Inter American University of Puerto Rico- Metro Cumpus. The school provides elementary and high school education and is located in Avenida Ponce de León, at the Parada 19 in Santurce.

Before foundation

Before the school was founded, a small school affiliated with the church had existed on the current parking lot grounds of the church. This early school was housed in a wooden structure that was destroyed when Hurricane Philip struck Puerto Rico in 1928. This early school had only been an elementary school that had added a new grade every year.
