Does anyone have anything on this school?

Thanks for any help.

I know you're not supposed to have a specific school in mind when you go to hiring conferences, but I kind of had my heart set on ISD. I love how it is like a block from the ocean, wasn't too long of a flight from the States, and we wanted to be in Africa. It is far from the big game parks, but I didn't care.

My husband and I interviewed with them and it felt like a great fit; we were asked for a second interview but they did say the number of dependents a were a problem (they don't take more than two, even with a teaching couple). They ended up not moving forward because of the dependents; it worked out for the best because we accepted an offer from a school we are very excited about.

They have a great art program, a great benefits package, and I wouldn't hesitate going there if Africa in general doesn't scare you off.
