Dear Parents, Hope your children had a wonderful two weeks at school. Our collective efforts play a significant role in creating a nurturing and successful learning environment for all our students. Happy to share a few reminders: 1. Attendance Matters: Regular attendance is vital for your child’s academic progress and overall development. Please ensure that your child attends school regularly and arrives on time. If your child is unable to attend due to illness or other unavoidable circumstances, please notify the school promptly. Consistent attendance fosters a sense of responsibility and commitment to learning, which are core values we uphold. 2. Uniform and Punctuality: Our school uniform represents our unity and shared identity. We kindly request your support in ensuring that your child comes to school dressed in the prescribed uniform. Additionally, punctuality is key to a smooth start to the school day. Encourage your child to arrive on time, ready to engage in their learning journey. 3. Core Values: At Dubai Scholars, we are committed to instilling core values such as respect, responsibility, empathy, compassion, and integrity in our students. These values form the foundation of a positive and inclusive school culture. We encourage you to discuss these values with your child at home to reinforce their importance both at school and in everyday life. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We value your feedback and engagement in your child’s education. Thank you for your ongoing support, and we look forward to a successful and enriching academic year ahead.

Dear Parents, I hope this message finds you and your children in good health and high spirits. As we approach the end of the academic year, I wanted to take a moment to communicate with you regarding the upcoming exams. The examination period can be a challenging time for our students, both academically and emotionally. It is our duty as parents and educators to be attentive to our child’s emotional well-being and encourage them to express any concerns or anxieties they may have about the exams. Provide reassurance and guidance to alleviate their stress and instill confidence in their abilities. Let us celebrate effort and progress. Recognize your child’s efforts and progress throughout the preparation period. Positive reinforcement and encouragement go a long way in boosting their self-esteem and motivation. Our involvement and support are invaluable to your child’s success. Let us work together as a team to create an environment where they can excel academically while maintaining their overall well-being. Thank you for always being there.

Dear Parents, As we progress through Term 3 and approach assessments and a wrap-up for the year, my message to all students is to keep developing a passion for learning not for scores or grades alone. Embrace the process and enjoy the discoveries you make along the way. Your education is not merely a means to an end; it is a lifelong adventure filled with wonder and fulfillment. Together, let us foster a culture of passionate learners who will shape the world with their knowledge and innovation. Keep asking questions, explore new possibilities, do research, and learn from their environment. Almost all events held at school, provide several opportunities to learn and make the most of it. Wishing you the best for being a lifelong learner. Frank ScarcelliHead of School Read More

Dear Parents, We are happy to receive positive feedback from our Alumni students who are doing extremely well at universities and beyond. I take this opportunity to congratulate them for their hard work and dedication in whichever field they have chosen. We owe a huge congratulations to our dedicated faculty and staff who continue to challenge our students academically and provide guidance that leads to improvements in independent thinking, decision-making, and problem-solving. My message to parents as well is to continue and support their children in the career choices they make. Parents are the major influential factor in the career development of a child. The everchanging world with unprecedented times, and the dreams of each teen change accordingly. Children should choose their career paths and live their dreams. Wishing all our students the best of luck and we are happy to be instrumental in ensuring their dreams come true. Frank ScarcelliHead of School Read More

Dear Parents, I hope you enjoyed Eid Celebrations with your families. It was a pleasure to see how students walked into the school corridors and their classrooms in colorful outfits, greeting and wishing each other. Besides being integrated into the academic curriculum, festivals offer the opportunity for students to interact with the community around them. I would take this opportunity to thank our FS parents who came and enjoyed the concerts. Congratulations to our Performing Arts Department and FS Teachers for putting up great shows with our little angels. We at Dubai Scholars ensure that every term is focused on enabling students to maximise their learning and build further on everything they have achieved so far. Term 3 revolves around Standardised assessments and end-of-year examinations for many year groups. Our advice for all students is to start reviewing and revisiting concepts and their learning. It is crucial that they balance their day with some recreation, good sleep, physical exercise, and healthy nutrition. Frank Scarcelli Head of School Read More
