Historical Note

The International Institute for Girls in Spain was incorporated in 1892 under Massachusetts laws. Alice Gordon Gulick, a 1867 graduate of Mount Holyoke, founded this school in Santander, Spain. This school taught the women of Spain until World War I when economic hardship forced it to close. After World War II, the buildings were repossessed by the American Board, and they became a place for American programs. The Institute is presently coeducational and is dedicated to nonsecretarian education.
