The Dominican International School Taipei (DIS) is located at 76 Tah Chih Street, Taipei 10464, Taiwan. The campus sits in Taipei's Zhongshan District (in the Dazhi area), within an urban, multi-national neighborhood. The address is listed on the school's admission page and is also referenced by local Catholic authorities as the DIS Taipei campus.
DIS serves students from Pre-K through Grade 12, i.e., a K–12 program. The school structure includes a Lower School and a Middle/Upper School division, with dedicated LS and MS/HS counseling support and a house system that underpins school life. Pre-K entry is 4 years old, with age-appropriate grade placement guided by admissions policies.
DIS is a private, Catholic, English-medium international school. It is co-educational and governed by the Dominican Sisters, reflecting its Catholic, mission-driven identity.
DIS provides procedures for students with Additional Learning Needs (SEN). If a student is suspected of having special needs, parents may arrange a screening by a qualified clinical psychologist; eligibility for continuation is reviewed, and students receiving direct services are evaluated annually.
DIS follows a Modified American Curriculum and is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), an accreditation body associated with the United States. This provides a US-linked international-education affiliation.
The school is Catholic, run by the Dominican Sisters, with a Catholic identity embedded in its mission and campus ministry.
