An Idea is Born.
In 1988, a concerned and passionate group of Spanish speaking parents, most of them mainly immigrants fleeing El Salvador's civil unrest of the late '70s and early '80s, motivated by the need to provide to their young children a source of pride and continuity for their native language, formed the beginning of our history in Saskatoon. The second Spanish school is born under the name of El Salvador and Central American Spanish School. The first school had already been organized by the Chilian community since their arrival in the mid to late seventies fleeing the atrocities of the Pinochet regime.
