Art
Mrs. Bigham, our Art teacher, guides our student artists in studying various periods of art history, working with different media, and exploring specific styles. The goals of the art classroom include establishing a safe environment that encourages student artists to explore the wonderful world of art, find their personal style, have fun, and grow as artists.
Library Media Center
Students visit Mrs. Coultes, our librarian, and the library on a weekly basis for scheduled class times to check out books, receive lessons in library skills, complete research projects, and expand on 21st century skills. The library is also open for students to drop in and exchange books as needed throughout the week.
Counseling
The guidance program at DCES centers around character. Mrs. Ray, our school counselor, teaches students in her classroom on a regular basis. She also works with students individually and in small groups as needed.
Gifted and Talented
Our gifted and talented education at DCES is evidenced in several different ways. Our classroom teachers differentiate for the varieties of learners in their classrooms including providing for the gifted learner.
Lunch: A Balanced Plate
Our lunch program at DCES is run by Sodexo. Our goal is for your child to have a balanced plate at lunch.
