Daegu International School
In Donggu, there is an international school called Daegu International School. The American private school Lee Academy, located in Lee, Maine, and the City of Daegu have partnered to create it. Students in grades K–12 at Daegu International School receive an American curriculum that is taught entirely in English.
The Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) has granted DIS accreditation. Based on the Common Core State Standards, Maine Learning Results, and College Board Advanced Placement courses, DIS provides a demanding curriculum. Students from fifteen different countries receive education from DIS.
By assisting its students in becoming lifelong learners both inside and outside of the classroom, Daegu International School is committed to providing a high-quality living environment. DIS students can live, learn, and develop in a safe, healthy, and respectful community that is supported by the residential staff.
The DIS building can accommodate 120 students. There are five stories in the building. There are fifteen residential rooms, a staff room, a study room, and a laundry room spread across four floors. The first floor includes a large lobby, a kitchen, a game room, and a fitness center where guests can watch television. There are workstations and computers in the study area.
Every room is designed to accommodate two students who share a private restroom. Every room has wireless internet, radiant heat, and air conditioning. The rooms include two dress closets, two study desks with chairs, and two single beds with drawers. A security service keeps watch over the residential area twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
The success of residential life on the DIS campus depends on participation and cooperation in daily activities. Staff and students residing in the dorm will collaborate to create and execute a daily schedule and procedure at Daegu International School. Residents develop greater accountability and self-direction when they are involved in maintaining a safe and orderly routine.
It is highly recommended that students participate in every facet of DIS life. Students have access to a wide range of after-school activities and sports teams to choose from. In addition, students who wish to fulfill Korean education requirements can enroll in Korean language and history/social studies courses.
