A little information about our little school in Maracaibo, Venezuela. How it began ..... well Escuela Bella Vista started in September of 1934 as part of the Inter-Company school system. It was reorganized as an independent non-profit corporation in 1949, finally emerging as a private stock-owned school in September, 1950.The roots of the school can actually be traced as far back as 1896, when an American School was established by an individual named Heráclio Osuna.This info I borrowed from Chuck Clausen'd website. He's done his research and a great job on his EBV website. Check it out. http://www.cclausen.net/5ebv.html - James
