School Improvement
In the 2006-2007 school year, DCMST staff and teachers have been pushing students to use credible sources and use proper citation formats when writing research papers and conducting projects. The teachers have pushed to get students to understand and know the APA, MLA, and sometimes AMA formats for research papers/projects and other assignments. The teachers also do not allow students to use Wikipedia as a credible source of information at all.
Another improvement that is underway is a standardized lab report format for all DCMST classes that will be followed for all four years of the student's time at DCMST.
