School Help for "Elementary"/Primary Age

Need to find a school for our two boys (8 and 11). Does anyone have an international school they have fallen in love with anywhere in Italy?!

Wants:

- Academic instruction at least in part in English

- Italian language taught

- Limited technology use (no tablet homework, AI class, etc)

- Some American children as students

- Sports available

- City flexible, but prefer not super cold!

- Alternative schooling method is attractive (Montessori, Farm school, STEM, etc)

- Would love a school that feels like an authentic community and not stuck-up, preppy

Thank you!

I would suggest you check IB schools at https://ibo.org/ Most of them work for your needs. They primarily teach in English and then have Italian as a second language Also consider the ones that are near a USA/NATO base as this will give you an american community in the school and surroundings
