Welcome to the American School of Brasilia! Whether you are a prospective student or parent, a current community member, a possible employee, or an interested onlooker, it is my pleasure to welcome you to EAB.

The school uses American curriculum standards and benchmarks with an international perspective and a college preparatory level of rigor. The International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program is offered in grades 11 and 12 in order to prepare our graduates for success in their continuing education. While academic excellence is our focus, the integration of the arts, humanities, language learning, service, and athletics are closely wound into the EAB experience.
