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:
“Each truth that a writer acquires is a lantern, which he turns full on what facts and thoughts lay already in his mind, and behold, all the mats and rubbish which had littered his garret become precious. Every trivial fact in his private biography becomes an illustration of this new principle, revisits the day, and delights all men by its piquancy and new charm.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“A radical is one of whom people say “He goes too far.” A conservative, on the other hand, is one who “doesn’t go far enough.” Then there is the reactionary, “one who doesn’t go at all.” All these terms are more or less objectionable, wherefore we have coined the term “progressive.” I should say that a progressive is one who insists upon recognizing new facts as they present themselves—one who adjusts legislation to these new facts.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
