About DCCDS
Building Bright Futures
Denton City County Day School (DCCDS) is a nonprofit preschool serving a multicultural community since 1952. Our school recognizes the uniqueness of each child and provides positive encouragement for the child's continued growth. The fundamental reason for the kind of developmentally appropriate, child-centered, experiential learning is to enable our children to think critically, work cooperatively, and solve problems creatively. Our curriculum encourages children to develop a healthy and positive self-concept through individualized instruction. Our school environment offers children hands on learning experiences for more abstract concept development and opportunities for creative learning. This allows children to make sense of what they are learning and to connect or integrate their knowledge in ways that lead to rich conceptual development.
