Other Facts
DC offers a variety of ways in which students can discover what they want to do as a profession and serve their community at the same time. The new "J-term" is a two-week time period after winter break in January (thus, "J-term") when the High School students have a chance to do an internship, go on a missions trip, or take a class of their choice at school. This allows students to be able to gain experience in a possible career field through school, a benefit not found in almost any other schools.

Famous quotes containing the word facts:
“Great abilites are not requisite for an Historian; for in historical composition, all the greatest powers of the human mind are quiescent. He has facts ready to his hand; so there is no exercise of invention. Imagination is not required in any degree; only about as much as is used in the lowest kinds of poetry. Some penetration, accuracy, and colouring, will fit a man for the task, if he can give the application which is necessary.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“Whilst Marx turned the Hegelian dialectic outwards, making it an instrument with which he could interpret the facts of history and so arrive at an objective science which insists on the translation of theory into action, Kierkegaard, on the other hand, turned the same instruments inwards, for the examination of his own soul or psychology, arriving at a subjective philosophy which involved him in the deepest pessimism and despair of action.”
—Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)
