Testimonials
"DSI is teaching in a manner in which all schools should adapt. Gone are the traditional, non-focused methods of learning at DSI. The approach is much more intuitive and taps into the childrens natural curiosities. The staff and families that are here are just that, family. The older children have taken on a leadership role of nurturing the younger kids and they are quite protective of them. You cannot ask for, or find, a better learning environment than this." -Budreaux
"I have such respect for the teaching team the Founder and Director, Cathy Sagar, has put together. Such amazing teachers who use very creative methods, have testing and accountability for students and staff and get great results. They really do nurture the whole child and all of the children seem to love going to school. It's so nice to find an excellent private school that doesn't break the bank! I can't recommend more highly!" -roha66

Do you do STAAR testing?No. We do not give the STAAR test. However, we do use the MAPS test, which is a short, online test used by the majority of international schools. There are over 15,000 possible questions, so you cannot “teach to the test.” It is an external assessment of how students are performing compared to others in their grade level across the country.
