It is often believed that all children who attend private schools come from wealthy families. While this may be the case at some schools, it is not the case here! Our school has families from a variety of social and economic standings. We believe that Christian education should be possible for every student therefore, at DCS we do not have tuition. We do however, have a registration fee, a fundraising commitment, and a volunteer commitment to support the school.
Registration Fee:
Kindergarten fee is $150.00 and includes a DCS T-shirt.
Grade 1 to 9 fee is $300.00 and includes a DCS T-shirt.
The Volunteer Commitment consists in volunteering for a minimum of 10 hours for the Kindergarten parents and a minimum of 20 hours for grades 1 to 9 parents. There are different areas that the school needs help with such as events, reading in class, school maintenance, etc. If parents can not fulfill this commitment they will be subject to a $250.00 or $500.00 fee respectively.
The Fundraising Commitment is a pledge to raise funds for the school by participating in different fundraising activities and events. Alternatively, Kindergarten families can make a $500.00 payment and grade 1 to 9 families can make a $1,500.00 payment in lieu of fundraising.
