Academics

At Dover International School, we strive to offer our students a challenging and diverse American and International college preparatory education.
Facilitated by a caring, professional and specialized staff of teachers and others, we strive to empower our students to become critical, independent thinkers with the skills to participate dynamically and successfully in an ever changing global society. At DIS, we believe that our school curriculum must include learning experiences that develop the whole child and that all of our students should be active and responsible participants in their own learning.
To ensure high standards of excellence, we have developed curriculum for our Elementary School, Middle School and High School that offer opportunities for our students to embrace learning and succeed academically. Real life applications of subject knowledge are accomplished through an integrated core curriculum, complimented by electives that include art and music. We apply a major focus to interdisciplinary units of instruction.
