Duncan Christian School is an interdenominational school educating students from preschool to Grade 12. Our school property includes an elementary campus (preschool – Grade 7) and a secondary campus (Grade 8-12). The DCS experience encompasses faith, community, and family with a Christ-centred community-focused education while uncovering the God-given talents in everyone. The passions of DCS staff ensure students are provided with extensive support programs, academics, athletic teams, trades, and hands-on apprenticeships for those nearing graduation. It is preparing youth for life beyond the school's doors. We know that God created each person unique and loves us all. We work hard to support all students as they discover their talents and develop them so that they can become positive difference-makers in our world. Duncan Christian School aims to be a dynamic community of believers who strive to meet every child's needs by providing a stimulating and diverse learning environment that encourages students to be disciples of Jesus Christ by: Responding to Biblically faithful curriculum and worship. Teaching Christ-centered social responsibility that develops a Christ-like mind and character. Encouraging positive choices that enhance physical, mental, and spiritual health. Emphasizing environmental stewardship for God's creation. Providing service-learning opportunities, both locally and abroad. Celebrating each individual's unique needs, gifts, and potential. Duncan Christian School was established as a Christian learning community in the fall of 1960. The first classes were held in the facilities of the Christian Reformed Church at 930 Trunk Road. Three years later, classes moved to a newly erected school facility on the church property. The decision to relocate and expand was prayerfully made. Within a matter of days, the ground was broken at 5781 Chesterfield Street. The fall of 1980 classes was held at the new location. The building continued for the next two years until the fall of 1982 when we opened a new science lab, home economics room, gym, and an industrial education shop. During the years following, thought was often directed toward expanding the program to include secondary instruction. In 1985, five acres adjoining the elementary property was purchased for the high school. In May 1988, the first step toward making this thought reality was taken. On January 5, 1990, students first occupied the brand new Duncan Christian Secondary campus. It was an exciting day in our history a day of thanksgiving and praise. The secondary campus, located at 495 Beech Avenue, is separated from the elementary campus by a parking lot and a playing field. In January 2009, we celebrated the dedication of opening the high school's new full-size gymnasium. This project broke ground in June of 2007. Our new gym allows us to offer our students one of the most beautiful facilities on Vancouver Island. After growing up in Abbotsford, BC, I attended university in the midwest of the United States. My wife and I then spent four years teaching after graduating and were blessed by the very welcoming people of Iowa. It is our founding belief as a Christian school that Christ is Lord over every aspect of life and creation. Whether students hope to attend university after graduation, enter the workforce, or serve the community in some other way, our goal is to provide a loving and supportive school environment where children and young people are valued, respected, and supported as staff work and learn alongside them. We desire that through this process, students will experience the love of Jesus and grow in their relationship with Him. Would you consider financially supporting the ministry of DCS so that we might continue to provide all students opportunities to grow in their faith and rise to become the community-building people God has planned for them to be? Your support will positively impact DCS students and help ensure that many more young people receive Christian school education in the Cowichan Valley. Your gifts are impacting the lives of our students both now and for generations to come. If you are not able to give financially, there are other ways you can support DCS. Please keep us in your prayers, and ask God to lead you considering how you might be able to use your talents and resources to help bless the Kingdom-building work that is taking place at DCS. Duncan Christian School aims to be a dynamic community of believers who strive to meet the needs of every child by providing a stimulating and diverse learning environment that encourages students to be disciples of Jesus Christ. We confess that Christ is Lord of all, and He calls us, in community, to equip students for a life of discipleship as stewards of His creation. View full school
