Admissions at DCS

Find a school partnership built around what matters most.

Choosing a school is about more than classes and schedules. It is about finding a community that will know your child, challenge them to grow, and reinforce the faith and values you are building at home. At Delaware Christian School, families find purposeful learning, personal attention, and a Christ-centered partnership across the school journey.

Why DCS

A place to learn, belong, and grow with purpose.

Families come to Delaware Christian School for many reasons, but the strongest ones work together: a shared foundation of faith, meaningful academic challenge, teachers who know their students, and a school-home partnership that takes formation seriously.

  • Faith is foundational

    Biblical truth is not an add-on to the school day. It shapes how students understand knowledge, character, relationships, and their responsibility to serve others.

  • Academics are purposeful

    Students are challenged to think critically, communicate clearly, build strong habits, and pursue excellence with the gifts God has given them.

  • Students are known

    A close-knit school community creates room for teachers and staff to recognize individual strengths, notice needs, and invest personally in student growth.

  • Partnership matters

    DCS comes alongside families with a shared commitment to faith, learning, character, and responsibility—because meaningful education works best when school and home are moving in the same direction.

Your questions are a good place to start.

Every family comes to the admissions process with a different story. Tell us what you are looking for, what grade level you are considering, and what matters most for your student. Our Admissions Department can help you understand DCS and the current next steps from there.

Planning Your Next Step

The information families need to make a thoughtful decision.

Admissions is one part of a larger decision. These pathways give families the context to understand DCS more fully without duplicating policy-sensitive or annually changing information on this page.

A partnership shaped by Christian faith.

Delaware Christian School is built around a school-home partnership rooted in Christian faith and biblical education. Families who want to understand DCS beliefs and institutional commitments in greater depth should review the Mission & Beliefs page as part of their decision process.

Plan with the current information in one place.

Tuition, EdChoice information, Pre-K tuition, and other financial details change over time. The dedicated Tuition & Financial Aid page should remain the authoritative destination for current-year costs and available planning information, rather than duplicating annual figures throughout Admissions.
