ABOUT DAR ESSALAM AMERICAN SCHOOL IN RABAT
A UNIQUE APPROACH TO GLOBAL LEARNING

Welcome Message from the Head of School
It is an honor to support the students at Dar Essalam American School develop as learners exemplifying the DAS student profile; students who care about the world around them and are flexibly-inclined, who work together to problem solve, whose linguistic proficiency spans many languages, who are driven to be curious and active global citizens. I am excited to collaborate with students and colleagues in further developing the fusion of the best of Finnish and American pedagogical practices while rooted in Moroccan culture and values.
My professional background includes over 30 years as a teacher and as an administrator in international school. Building on the work of previous leaders at Dar Essalam, and with my knowledge of educational frameworks and years as a teacher and principal, help give me insight that I hope will inspire Dar Essalam American School to be the premier international school in Morocco and the region. With exceptional teachers, modern state-of-the-art facilities, and teaching and learning experiences that will propel students to succeed, the opportunities at DAS are exciting and immense!
Thank you!
— Mr. Harry Houlis, Acting Head of School
