We celebrate our October Students of the Month for embodying the values of Cultural Diversity and Flexibility

Today we honor the students who stood out during the month of October, exemplifying with excellence two of our core values: Cultural Diversity and Flexibility.

These young individuals have shown openness to learning from others, adaptability in the face of new challenges, and a willingness to collaborate with respect and empathy. Their example strengthens our community, making it more united, more inclusive, and more humane.

Congratulations to each one of you! Your effort and commitment inspire us to keep building—together—the world we envision.

We are incredibly proud of you.

We celebrated a “Spooktacular Halloween” at the Domínico Americano School!

Este año vivimos una celebración de Halloween llena de color, creatividad y diversión en cada rincón de nuestra comunidad escolar. Desde nuestros pequeños de Preescolar, convertidos en adorables calabacitas, hasta los estudiantes de Secundaria, quienes llegaron caracterizados como fantasmas, superhéroes y personajes sorprendentes, todos demostraron un gran espíritu festivo. 

Los disfraces destacaron por ser ingeniosos, divertidos y, en algunos casos, ¡deliciosamente espeluznantes! Se notó el esfuerzo y la imaginación que cada estudiante puso para que esta celebración fuera inolvidable. 

La jornada estuvo acompañada de actividades como trick or treat, juegos, risas y momentos llenos de dulces para compartir entre amigos. Fue una experiencia que promovió la convivencia, la creatividad y el entusiasmo entre nuestros estudiantes.
