Doha International School (DIS) is a private international school in Qatar that has operated since 1995. It functions under the supervision of the Ministry of Education and Higher Education of Qatar. It follows the American curriculum (California) for core subjects and serves students from pre‑school through Grade 6. Arabic language, Islamic education, and Qatar History are taught to all students using MOEHE‑provided materials, while English, Math, Science, and Social Studies are taught in English to align with American standards. The school operates as an independent private institution within Qatar's education system.
DIS supports a connected school community through a calendar of student activities and events. Regular field trips and activities are listed, including Bounce visits for KG1 and KG2 and for Grades 1–2, and events such as Nutrition Day. The site also references community partnership activities conducted as part of a community partnership program. Extracurricular offerings include Cross Country, Varsity Soccer, Girls Tennis Club, and Girls Volleyball Club, which contribute to holistic development.
A formal PTA is not publicly listed on the school's site. The Student and Parent Handbook describes policies and expectations for families and students, indicating structured parent–school communication but not a formal PTA framework. Public documentation does not show PTA meetings, committees, fundraising events, or PTA‑organized activities. Parent involvement appears to be channeled through general communications and participation in school events rather than through a named PTA body. If you need confirmation on whether a PTA exists or how parents can participate formally, contacting the school would provide the latest information.
