Overall I have had a great experience at DCHS. I have made many friends and connections that I will carry with me onto the next steps in my life. The staff here have helped that, the staff here are amazing. They truly want to see you succeed and will be on your side. You can have class conversations but also in the hallways or out in public you will feel welcomed to have a conversation. One thing I would change right off the top of my head is the option at lunch. There is only one alternative, which don't get me wrong is great already but I know plenty of people who can't eat the alternate because of a food allergy. So having more choices or having a salad bar on the regular I think would help others.

Some teachers were very helpful and supportive, others brought their political beliefs into the classroom and didn't properly assist students with disabilities. There are a wide variety of activities and elective classes, and certain activities and sports do quite well.
