The Crandon Institute (Spanish: Instituto Crandon) is a private bilingual Methodist school in Montevideo, Uruguay. Crandon was founded in 1879 by teacher Cecilia Güelfi as the Liceo Evangélico, or Evangelical High School, and was the first school in the country with roots in the Evangelical movement.
Renamed Crandon Institute in 1906 as a tribute to the American Methodist Mrs. Frank P. Crandon, it occupies a central location on the corner of 8 de Octubre Avenue and Garibald in Barrio La Blanqueada, Montevideo.[1][2]
