History

Alliance Academy International traces its origin to humble beginnings. Several young missionary couples who were concerned about the education of their children looked to God for guidance and wisdom. As a result, the school opened on November 3, 1929, in one of the rooms of the Alliance Mission House on Cuenca Street in downtown Quito.

The school remained at this location until 1939 when funds became available to purchase property. At this time land on the north end of the city in an area known as Iñaquito was purchased. The property was divided between the Alliance Academy and Christian radio station HCJB.

Since 1945 the Academy has served children from families of many different missions, embassies, and private business enterprises.
