Our world has become global. As your children grow, they will not only be citizens of their own country, but of the world. As citizens of this new "global country," they will need new skills. They will face daily challenges that you as parents may not have experienced - understanding, communicating and working among other cultures to learn from and succeed through increasingly international relationships. Both the children of families native to Dallas and those who have made North Texas their home need to learn to become global citizens.
At Dallas International School we educate our students with these new challenges in mind, by:
* Teaching in two languages: French and English.
* Teaching other languages: Spanish and Chinese.
* Following the principle that to really master a language you have to study the culture that goes with it.
* Basing its pedagogy on the French model.
* Incorporating the best aspects of the American School System.
After such a strong education, DIS students will have the skills to continue their studies at universities in the United States or abroad and launch a professional career which will take advantage of all the opportunities created by globalization. They will also be prepared to bloom into adulthood with such qualities as tolerance, intellectual curiosity and generosity.
