Experiential Learning
“Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much” Helen Keller
School life is not only about academics but also taking part in activities which broaden students’ horizons and give meaning to what is being studied. At DSC, we have structured into our programming opportunities for students to be active local and global citizens. These unique learning experiences lead to lifelong memories; the value of these experiences cannot be overstated. They help raise achievement by giving students an opportunity to apply their knowledge in the real world.
Students at DSC have many opportunities to apply the knowledge and skills that they have learned in class to the real world. Volunteer community service opportunities, Experiential Learning Week, and Career Integrated Learning all provide students with a variety of opportunities to enhance their secondary school journey, provide valuable and meaningful experiences, and add to their personal life experiences.
Collectively, our students have completed thousands of hours of community service, worked on overseas development projects, all in an effort to meet our School’s Mission Statement which supports striving for excellence and promotes making a positive contribution to the local and global communities.
