DECS Ideals
At DECS, we work to reach the whole child. We value each student and actively strive to establish a deep sense of connection among students, families, and our learning community.
- Small class sizes and targeted small-group instruction help students, staff, and families form strong relationships.
- Homebase communities give students and families consistency and connection throughout their middle school years, and homebase teachers help families keep up with the changing middle school landscape.
- Restorative Practices support connection and community and help students thrive in their relationships with others.
- School and community events form traditions and create unity.
