Colegio Menor is a private, bilingual (Spanish-English) school located in Quito, Ecuador, in the valley of Cumbayá. It offers education from Pre-K to 12th grade. The school is known for its rigorous academic program and its emphasis on developing students through a variety of extracurricular activities based on liberal arts.
It was founded in 1995, by Santiago Gangotena, PhD and Carlos Montufar, PhD. It was the lower school of the Universidad San Francisco de Quito until 2019, when it joined Nord Anglia Education.
