Dalian American International School (DAIS; Chinese: 大连美国国际学校) is an American international school in the Golden Pebble Beach National Resort (金石滩滇), in Jinzhou New District, Dalian, China,[1][2] about 60 kilometres (37 mi) east of the center of Dalian. It is owned by the Honor Roll Company.[3] DAIS is associated with the Association of China and Mongolia International Schools (ACAMIS). The member schools include Shanghai American School, British International School, The International School of Macao, International School of Beijing, and Dulwich College.
The American international school program, serving grades Pre-Kindergarten to 12,[3] admits pupils who are not Mainland Chinese citizens.[4] Mainland Chinese are instead admitted to the Huamei Academy (华美学院), a 7-12 grade program.[5]
DAIS also administers a Montessori-style preschool on campus; this preschool is administratively separate from DAIS.[6]
History
Honor Roll established DAIS in 2006 after Intel asked for an American schooling option for children of its employees; Intel had started operations in the Dalian area that year.[3]
Student body
Dalian American International School serves 300+ students of approximately 29 nationalities in Pre-K through 12th grade. The majority of students (43%) come from the USA, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, 37% are Asian students (South Korea, Japan, Singapore, and other countries), and 13% are from Europe.
