Somos School
Cultivating adaptable, thoughtful, and well-rounded learners through an education that nurtures the mind, heart, and spirit.
Our Environment
Nestled in the beautiful community of Encuentro, Dominican Republic, Somos School offers a learning environment that feels both inspiring and grounded. Our schoolhouse is intentionally designed to support children’s growth—open, welcoming, and connected to nature. Surrounded by fresh air, green spaces, and the rhythms of the outdoors, students learn in a setting that encourages curiosity, calm, creativity, and a deep appreciation for the world around them.
Learn By Doing
At Somos School, learning comes alive through hands-on experiences that spark curiosity and build real-world skills. Whether exploring nature, creating art, practicing life skills, or diving into interactive projects, students are encouraged to engage fully with their learning. By doing, experimenting, and discovering, children develop confidence, problem-solving abilities, and a deeper understanding of the world—making every lesson meaningful and memorable.
Mission
Somos School’s Mission & Vision
At Somos School, our mission and vision come together to create a vibrant, holistic learning community where children are inspired to explore, create, and grow. Rooted in the belief that change is constant, we empower students to think critically, adapt confidently, and develop into compassionate global citizens. Through high-quality, detail-focused education, specialized teaching, and a diverse range of enriching subjects, we nurture the whole child—academically, emotionally, and creatively—preparing them to thrive in school and in life.
A Word
From Our Director

By cultivating a community rooted in creativity, integrity, and a love for learning, we aim to provide an education that not only prepares students for the future—but empowers them to shape it.”
