DCT helps students like Campbell connect to their creativity!
Mom Stephanie shares Campbell’s experience at DCT:
“I don’t think I can count the number of activities we’ve quit.
Dance, soccer, Girl Scouts. The list is long, and finding the right fit for your child is an even lengthier process.
But for the past 10 weeks, Campbell has participated in an acting class. She wrote lines, she painted scenery, she came up with her character (appropriately named Uni-Kitty).
And today, she performed.
She got on stage with bright lights and lots of onlookers, and from the front row, I watched a little girl who used to speak only in scripts deliver a new kind of script with ease.
Today, I became an even bigger fan than I already was. Campbell/Uni-Kitty, you are a star.
I will always be cheering you on.

It’s not lost on me that this morning when I looked out & waved back at hundreds of wide-eyed 7-8 yr. old guests, at least half were glowing black & brown faces. It was their first ever class field trip & I’ll never forget & take for granted their enthusiasm & wonder & glee AT. EVERY. SINGLE. THING. They were cheering, gasping, chattering, clapping, reacting, living! For at least one child of immigrants, it was the best day of their life & I got to be part of making that happen. I can’t wait to do it again tomorrow.”
