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:
“The past is of no importance. The present is of no importance. It is with the future that we have to deal. For the past is what man should not have been. The present is what man ought not to be. The future is what artists are.
The facts: nothing matters but the facts: worship of the facts leads to everything, to happiness first of all and then to wealth.”
—Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)
“It is part of the educator’s responsibility to see equally to two things: First, that the problem grows out of the conditions of the experience being had in the present, and that it is within the range of the capacity of students; and, secondly, that it is such that it arouses in the learner an active quest for information and for production of new ideas. The new facts and new ideas thus obtained become the ground for further experiences in which new problems are presented.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)
