So…how many schools did you attend? K-College?
I know that it is common for a TCK to attend many schools…what schools did you attend?
I’ll start:
- A Brasilian Montesorri school
- ACE program for Kind.
- American School of Brasilia
- An elementary school in the states for about 6 months–I don’t remember that much about it.
- American School of Recife
- Returned to the states for a year–1 semester at an elementary school then 1 semester at a middle school
- Pan American Christian Academy in Sao Paulo
- Returned to the states for good finished high school in Florida.
- Did 2 years at Santa Fe Community College
- Then moved to MA and finished college at Eastern Nazarene College
So what is that count…11.
I though it might be interesting to share,

K at IST (International School of Tanganyika in Dar Es Salaam)

4 - 6 at Töölö Elementary School, Helsinki FI
8 - 12 at ICS (International Community School of Addis Ababa)
This is currently my first year at the University of Jyväskylä, in Finland.
I skipped 1st and 7 th grade, but repeated 4th and 5th, because of the different systems. In the British, first graders are 5 yrs old, I went straight to 2nd, but in Finland they took me back cos they start later. I ended up graduating with people mostly my age tho…
4 schools. I know that seems like a little, compared to those with like 12
