Overview
As a Christian academy dedicated to excellence, Divine Savior exists to provide college-prep academics, supportive teachers, and a Christian environment to share Christ's love with students and their families. We are a multi-site school system with campuses in Florida (Miami and Delray Beach) and Texas (Austin and Houston).
Our community makes our school special. DSA isn't just a place where children come to learn and grow, it's where parents find the partnership of teachers, the support of administrators, and the friendship of fellow parents.
We believe in giving our students not just a foundation for college and future educational opportunities, but for their entire lives. In order to do this, we nurture all areas of a student's development: academic, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual.
American Heritage Schools leads the way in academic excellence for private education.
With two 40-acre campuses in Broward and Palm Beach Counties, Florida, we serve 2,000 students from Pre-K3 to 12th grade.
Named the #1 K-12 Private School in Florida, we also hold the top spot for the most National Merit Scholars and Presidential Scholars in the state.
For 60 years, our mission has focused on fostering knowledge, integrity, and compassion, nurturing each child's potential to become active, intelligent, creative, and contributing members of society.
