Athletics
Mission & Philosophy
Everyday Excellence defines the approach of working to give your best effort at all times. Championship Character defines the way in which we strive for that excellence. Athletes won't always be at their best but can be encouraged to strive for their best. We view athletics as a way believers can use their bodies to glorify God and we view athletic performances as acts of worship towards Him. We believe that each person is gifted with abilities given by God and our coaches strive to work with each athlete to discover and then refine those gifts to help them to become the best athletes and teams that they can be.
DC offers a variety of interscholastic sports. Over 88% of Middle School Students and 64% of Upper School Students participate in athletics.
- 18 Middle School Sport Teams
- 16 Varsity Sport Teams
