Student Spotlight
Why is DCG the place for our family?
“The staff at South Prairie, where our girls attend, is the absolute best! They are skilled at what they do, communicate effectively, and create a space where my children have found curiosity and joy in learning. It has become a place where our girls are excited to wake up and go to every morning. Watching our kids learn to read, write, sing, create art, and so much more has truly been the joy of a lifetime for us. We look forward to continuing our journey within DCG and to seeing what other opportunities await us as our children grow.” – The Nay Family
