The American School of Brasíia (EAB) was founded in 1964 and offers preschool through grade 12 based on a U.S. public school curriculum. Instruction is in English, but English-speaking students are required to study Portuguese. The school has about 600 students from about 40 countries. Facilities include a soccer/softball field. Technology is just one part of economy for this huge country. The majority of the focus is put onto the companies involved in exporting the vast raw materials the land holds. The "new economy" is just emerging inside of Brazil. And in this new economy Brazil may eventually become a major player. The journey starts here.
