Buenos Aires - School Report Question and Answers

Please describe any problem areas or challenges in social interaction at the school:

The school is very social.Kids of all backgrounds seem to mix well.This may not be a problem, but be warned:Argentina is a late-night environment for house parties, many parties start at 1 a.m.Driving age is 17 and, thankfully, very few students have cars.Kids travel in hired cars to and from parties.Also, alcohol is frequently served at parties. - Jul 2012


My friend who has a daughter in high school is often challenged with local culture. Teens have parties (quinceneras, bdays, etc) that will start at 10PM and go until 2 or 3 in the AM. Thats normal here, but some Americans struggle with the idea of their 15 yr old at a party until 2 AM. - Jun 2011
