My husband received his offer this week, so we are finishing up the mound of paperwork. I am looking for information about Dharan High School. Specifically, is it likely for Aramco to allow us to send our 9th grader to start there instead of on camp, since we are not going to send him to boarding school for the rest of high school? Also, would our 2nd grader and 7th grader be on the same campus as each other, or are there different campuses for Elementary and Jr. High? Thanks for any information!

You can see the website for this school, do a search for International Schools Group Dhahran. Dhahran High School is a part of this system.
Aramco does not pay for 9th graders to attend school outside the compound except for the British School for UK residents, that I know of.
They do pay for this school starting in the 10th grade and provide bus service to this school.
It would help your child make friends on camp to attend the Aramco schools for 9th grade and move into DHS with the other Aramco students who will also go to DHS for 10th grade. About 1/3 of the students in Aramco DHA go to DHS.
Your 2nd grader and 7th graders would not be on the same campus in Dhahran. But in the other Aramco compounds they would if they haven't changed in recent years.
Dhahran has a separate elementary K - 5 and a Jr. High for grades 6 - 9, the preschool is also on this Jr. High campus.
