Each school's profile shows term dates, open days and how to enquire.
Most schools here are day schools; check individual profiles for any boarding options.
doris lists every international school in Dominican Republic we can find — not only those that pay. We take no placement fees and sell no rankings or "top school" spots, so the schools above aren't ordered by who paid most. Details come from the schools' own information and public sources, and you can compare any of them side by side.
