Overall I have had such an amazing time at DJDS! I have connected with students as well as my teachers. I have enjoyed the school spirt!

My kids are thriving at DJDS. They are both high achieving (especially in math) and the teachers do an amazing job of differentiating, in small group work, to make sure they are challenged (even in 1st grade!) — and the love and care from their teachers, administrators and families is amazing. It's a parent community as much as a student community. I always know someone is looking out for my kids, academically and social/emotionally.

The time that I went to DJDS was perhaps one of the best. I always had fun while it provided me enough academic support to go on and live a successful career. I still think about this school and how grateful I am to them and the second family it gave me.

We...
