Vicente López Named Argentina’s First 'Google District'

The designation caps years of municipal teacher training to embed Google tools in public classrooms.

Overview

  • Google for Education says the status connects the municipality to a global network and provides specialized trainings, pedagogical resources, technical support, and collaboration opportunities.
  • Google’s Argentina education lead said the certification reflects sustained classroom use of the tools, with teachers proficient both technically and pedagogically.
  • The recognition builds on Escuela Primaria Municipal Manuel Dorrego’s rare feat as the only Argentine public Google Reference School for three consecutive years.
  • The program now adds Escuela Primaria Emma Pérez Ferreira, Escuela Secundaria Paula Albarracín, and CFI Durlach, which are slated to receive equipment and teacher training.
  • Mayor Soledad Martínez said Vicente López is currently the only municipality with public schools certified by Google and urged other jurisdictions to replicate the model.
