La Ceiba Bilingual School (or CBS) is a bilingual (English/Spanish) school located in La Ceiba, Honduras. Like many bilingual schools in Honduras it follows the US school-year (fall to spring). It is the second oldest bilingual school in the city (Mazapan School being the first). It is located in the El Sauce neighborhood.
As opposed to bilingual schools in the city that follow the United States school system, CBS teachers follow a traditional Honduran school system, with grades 1 - 11. The pre-school education starts with daycare or nursery.
Since the beginning it has been a family run institution. Sandra Payne, the school's founder, was the first principal. Suyapa de Hyde, Ms. Payne's daughter and a CBS alumna, is the current principal.

Famous quotes containing the word school:
“And Guidobaldo, when he made
That grammar school of courtesies
Where wit and beauty learned their trade
Upon Urbino’s windy hill,
Had sent no runners to and fro
That he might learn the shepherds’ will.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
