WHAT PARENTS SAY
Here’s what parents in our community say about Dalian American International School:
Grade 2, USA Parent
San Jose, California
“It is a very relaxing environment for my kids to grow at a pace that fits their needs. The community is very friendly and supportive – like a family. The school has given all of my children a true global view, pushed them out of their comfort zones, and given them opportunities to grow into the leaders and global citizens they are today.”
Grade 10, China/US Parent
China
“DAIS is a great community with caring staff and parents and excellent educators who care about the students and give them the attention and tools they need to learn and excel.”
Pre-K, UK Parent
Greenock, Scotland
“One of the important things is that my daughter immediately felt welcomed at DAIS and when the kids are happy the family is happy too. The sports teams at DAIS have made my daughter and I feel very positive. I love the emotions of the players during games.”
Grade 8, USA Parent
Saratoga Springs, Utah
“When we decided to leave the US and move our five young children to China, we experienced the same fears, doubts, and concerns that you would expect any parent to feel. The DAIS community has been a tremendous blessing in our lives! What we feared could be a negative, was quickly turned into a positive and what we thought might be a trial, is now viewed as a positive move! Frankly speaking, we could not have done this overseas assignment without DAIS. ”
Grade 9, Canada Parent
Montreal
“DAIS is a splendid place for kids that want to learn, build character, be part of a mosaic community and above all have fun while studying and preparing for the future.”
