"A mixed experience"

We were happy with our son's time at DCHS, but felt that the school could have been more supportive during a difficult year for him. The teachers were generally good, but there were some inconsistencies in the quality of teaching. The facilities are good, but we felt that the school could have done more to engage us as parents.
