A Home Away From Home

The Dalat boarding community is a home away from home for DIS students from international or local families who want their students to grow in independence. Living in the dorms is a great way to make new friends and learn life skills while living in a supportive and encouraging environment.

Please take a moment to scroll through our dorm photo album for a visual tour of dorm life:

Dorm Life!

We create a home-like atmosphere in each dorm to help students feel comfortable, secure and well cared for. Our dorms are all family-style, which means each dorm includes both genders and a variety of ages. This creates a close-knit family atmosphere, fosters healthy relationships between dorm students of different ages, and allows siblings to live together in the same dorm.

We offer many family-bonding opportunities which help students connect with one another and feel a sense of belonging: birthday parties for each student, special outings and activities, dorm family devotions, homemade daily breakfast and weekly special treats, service projects, dorm Christmas parties, and an annual dorm retreat.

The Greatest Strengths of our Boarding Community are:
