The following dates on our school calendar are National Holidays in Costa Rica: If a holiday falls on a weekday, school will close for the day and a $30 discount will be applied to that week’s rate (NOTE: discount does not apply to low season rates or on private lessons). If the holiday falls on a Monday, classes will begin Tuesday that week. Holidays that fall on a weekend will not affect your Spanish program. Homestays are not affected by the holidays.
