History

Instituto San Roberto was founded on March 8, 1982 by Mrs. Monica Sada. It was, at first, a school dedicated to the education of preschoolers. ISR started activities on September 1982, in a rented house in San Pedro Garza García, Nuevo León.

The nameSan Robertowas chosen in honor of Mr. Roberto G. Sada Jr., one of Monterreys most distinguished businessmen and father of the founder. The Preschool level was successful in the community, and parents asked for the Elementary level to be opened. This level was started with a bilingual system in September 1983.

Due to the increase in the number of students and the need for new facilities, Mrs. Cristina Sada, the founders sister, joined the school as an investor. On November 1984, the new San Agustin Campus was inaugurated.

The Middle School level was initiated in September 1989 and the Valle Alto Campus opened its doors in September 1994 to attend the requirements of parents in the southern part of the city.

Both campuses, San Agustin and Valle Alto, obtained initial accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) on December 2002, and were re-accredited in 2006.
