School Day Program: DCALS provides a positive, safe, and structured learning environment with block-scheduling Monday through Friday from 7:35-2:15.
Independent Study (IS): Work is completed independently through a combination of written work and online with a credit recovery program – Odysseyware. Each course is a semester credit upon successful completion. Courses can be modified.
Many paper and pencil options are also available from subject area teachers. Students ask for IS work to supplement a full or modified class schedule. (Any version of IS requires seat time within the building.)
Project Based Learning: Students design and propose projects to teachers. The subject area teacher works with the proposal and credit is awarded upon completion.
