Our History

The Colegio Dominicano was founded on September 1, 1980 en la Avenida Juan Pablo Duarte como tanda matutina. En 1983 se traslada a la calle Del Sol No.4 donde se le da apertura a la tanda vespertina. En 1992 it was converted into a multilingual and multicultural institution by implementing English and French as foreign languages into the curriculum. In 1993, the location was moved to Km. 4 ½ on the Carretera Santiago-Licey.

Desde 2004 somos un centro de certificación de Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) en Word, Powerpoint, Access y Excel, siguiendo los lineamientos de la vanguardia tecnológica.

Por el trabajo realizado para la protección del Medio Ambiente estamos certificados como Ecoescuela por el Instituto de derecho ambiental de la República Dominicana (IDARD) y por la Foundation for environmental education (FEE).  

A través del tiempo seguimos incursionando en las novedades educativas del momento para brindar a nuestro estudiantado lo más actualizado en materia formativa y de aprendizaje.

Metodolology

This system transforms complexity into simple and concrete actions based on the development of life skills such as peaceful coexistence with others, social emotional skills, teamwork, collaboration, problem solving, confidence, leadership, and entrepreneurship in a global world in the 21st century.
