Loved having small class sizes. I was able to build a better rapport with all my teachers. Also having small class sizes the teachers were able to spend more time with students who needed extra help. Everyone was so supportive of all extra curricular activities. I felt completely prepared when I graduated and went on to college.

I went to DC and I'm now in public highschool. There were kids who were only showing up for sports but not education. DC is not a bad school. They should allow more classes to the kids.
