Info
This is a no nonsense school with great resources, real teachers (as opposed to those who just want a job), and a healthy balance of respect for, yet firm guidance of the students. The amount of homework is reasonable yet challenging. Global awareness being imparted to the students is beyond compare ...  Read more

DCIS is an excellent school for the kid that self motivated and international orientated. There is a lot of free time (1 hour lunch break, 20 min office hours) to get homework done, meet with teachers, do projects, or goof off (see comment about being self motivated). Many of the teachers have been overseas ...  Read more

Like any school, this one has its good and bad points. There is nothing to compare with the foreign language program--nowhere else can kids choose from five languages and study one to proficiency.

DCIS was a program within West HS for about 20 years. About three years ago they moved out of West and started their own school with the addition of middle grades. I would agree with all of the comments here so far, even the bad ones. There are some really great things going on, some great potential, ...  Read more
