Our mission is to educate children and instill in our students a love of learning and the abilities to think critically, live ethically, and appreciate the value of each individual.

Teachers at The Dongsan School create learning environments where students play an active role in the learning process – they create knowledge and learn by doing. Because all students are unique, Dongsan teachers differentiate curriculum, construct developmentally appropriate learning situations, and build on the individual strengths of students.

Teachers continually observe and assess student learning to develop curriculum appropriate for each student.
