About Our School
Home of the Dragons
At Del Dayo School, our vision is to ensure that every student meets or exceeds challenging academic standards, acts responsibly, and values the learning process. We will celebrate and respect one another.
We pride ourselves on a positive school environment that provides the academic atmosphere in which each student can excel on standards and develop the emotional and interpersonal skills necessary for independence in an ever-changing society. We work carefully with parents to help develop a positive self-image with an appreciation for the value of learning in every student.
