Dakota Memorial School (DMS) is a non-public school located on the campuses of Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch.
DMS provides a specialized education for children in residential care at the Ranch, along with Day Students who come to us from the surrounding communities.
The education faculty at DMS believe our greatest contribution is to be sure there is a teacher in every classroom who cares that every student, every day, learns and grows and feels like a real human being.
