School

DAYSTAR INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL

DayStar International School is an English school that was founded in 2019 to minister to the lives of children and families. Our School was established on the belief that all things are possible for those who trust in God. DIS founder, Francine Bruce, relied on God as they pioneered a school that engaged students in active learning, built self-confidence, eliminated labels and discipled students for Christ. Establishing DIS in our home with just 13 students, they quickly saw the promises of God come to fruition as DIS doubled the following year and moved to a bigger place reaching more families. DIS desires to continue to provide a Christ-centered education that fosters community and grows students spiritually, socially and academically.
