It is a university preparatory school. NSD is an independent school. 'Learning Living, Leading' is our motto. Within the safe and secure environment, we seek to equip our pupils for the world of today and tomorrow, to foster self-esteem and respect for others, to widen horizons and to give them the means to reach those horizons and beyond. We believe, an excellent education engages the natural developmental stage of each child: the preschool student's joy of discovery; the junior school and middle school student's exuberant dynamic growth; the high school student's emerging sense of purpose. Throughout their school experience, young people encounter opportunities to question, to reason, to express themselves, to discover and pursue a passion, to risk, and sometimes even to fail and to learn from that failure. . A clear understanding of one's self contributes to responsible citizenship, whether that involves treating each other nicely on the playground, or respecting our mutual interdependence in a world of many races, creeds, and political views.
