Welcome

Dear Parents, Students, Teachers and Prospective ISD Community members,

Thank you for taking the time to view the ISD website. We are proud of how we look on the web, but prouder still of what we are as a school. We hope you will come to the campus to take a tour and see for yourself all that ISD has to offer.

The International School of Dakar is a growing, vital, vibrant learning community which serves the needs of Dakar-based expatriates seeking a western-style education in English. Our graduates have gone on to top universities in both the US and Europe. ISD provides an excellent core educational program augmented with a diverse range of special subjects and extra-curricular activities. French, PE, Art and Music are a part of each elementary student's schedule. AP classes and other enriching courses are offered for high school students.

ISD is not just about classwork, though, it provides opportunities to educate the whole child, and students at ISD will be involved in service learning, athletics competitions, clubs and other activities. ISD provides an impressive array of ways to get involved in the school and community.

A key word at ISD, 'community' ISD is a community as much as a school; membership in the community provides many benefits. Nurturing, challenging, and enriching are just a few words that describe this special place.

Come on in and have a look! We'll be glad to extend Senegalese hospitality, ISD style.

Sincerely,

Wayne Rutherford
Director
