Diablo Hills Country School

One of DHCS' primary goals is to provide a loving and home-like atmosphere where children can learn to become competent in every aspect of their lives.
The term competence is meant to denote a feeling of self assurance in life and is exemplified by statements such as I can do it! What sets DHCS apart from similar preschools in the area is that we have smaller size classrooms and low teacher-child ratios to provide an intimate and focused learning environment.
