International School of Santo Domingo's Mission Statement: The International School subscribes to a way of teaching and classroom planning based on studies of how children learn. At the International School, language and math skills are taught through the areas of social studies, science, literature and humanities. In our classrooms children learn to read, write, listen, talk, and think while involved in a wide variety of learning experiences. ISSD focuses on the learning process. Children are learning how to learn. Children participate in drama, role-playing, research and other experiences that give them tools for life-long learning. Children learn how to ask questions, select topics, find materials, read, write, interview, share and present as they focus on science, social studies and literature themes. The school-wide young authors program takes children through the entire process of writing and publishing. At the International School, students are evaluated on their growth as learners as well as on their written projects or oral presentations.
