I went here back when it was called Tall Oaks Classical School. It was a horrible experience. Once I switched to a regular charter school, my school experience improved immensely.

If you are interested in this school please attend portrait of an education. You will be amazed at the work God does in the children that attend. I was and it was the deciding factor in sending my child here!

5.0 Parent

7/17/2023

I cannot say enough good things about DVCS. The education is excellent and the biblical foundation paramount, but the way they live out that foundation is why I won't send my kids anywhere else. They partner with parents, they model redemptive discipline, and my children have grown so much just in the few years we've been at the school. I am deeply grateful for the way DVCS has blessed my family and will sacrifice whatever I have to, to ensure that my kids continue their schooling here.
