Description:
Dublin School is a place where each student will write their own story – without the pressure of fitting into a mold or living up to other’s expectations.

We believe that this culture, together with Dublin’s rich history and stunning location, allows our students to grow in ways that they might have found unimaginable before Dublin.

Our size allows us to be intentional in everything we do. Whether that is beginning every day as a community in Morning Meeting – sharing stories and our talents – or in creating signature programs around Writing, Programming Robotics Imagination Science Math (PRISM), Spanish Language Learning, Endurance Sports, Theater, or Residential Life – everything has purpose. We believe in building a life of meaningful work that allows teenagers to find the deep satisfaction that is a byproduct of effort and achievement.
