Affording DC

Our Commitment to Affordability and an Exemplary Christian Education

DC offers a rigorous college preparatory education that is distinctly Christian. We educate the whole student to make a meaningful impact on the world through biblical thought and action.

Our students receive an education that offers:

  • Comprehensive and challenging courses of study that spark a life-long love of learning and development of critical thinking skills.
  • Extracurricular opportunities--in Athletics, the Arts, STEM, and more--that encourage personal growth, risk taking, and individual contributions to a larger common good.
  • Preparation for academic success in college and vocation.
  • Updated and beautiful campuses, designed to support serious scholarship for the members of our diverse and caring community.
  • Highly trained faculty and staff who are invested in their students' lives. Intentional mentor relationships help your child develop a Christian worldview and equip them to make a difference for Christ in the world.

We recognize affording a private, Christian education requires a significant investment for parents. Our commitment is to make this education accessible to as many Christian families as possible. DC’s Annual Fund and endowment income support all families by covering approximately 19% of the total cost of our school’s operating expenses. That means, at most, every DC student pays 81% of their true educational cost.
