Statement of Philosophy

Dalian American International School values learning and high achievement; thus our programs represent the very best academic and extracurricular standards. Together, as teachers and parents, we are committed to providing fine pastoral care that enhances students' personal development and encourages them to respect each other's strengths and differences. Individual and cooperative achievements are fostered through inspiration, success and friendly competition. Our school's teaching style is a constructive blend of the old and the new. We neither abandon traditional methods in favor of the latest trend, nor do we ignore advances in our understanding of child psychology, technology and science.
