Dutton Christian School is an amazing school! All 3 of my kids attend and I am amazed by the love and attention each one receives from their teachers. The curriculum is spot on and my kids learn about how God is working through each subject. I am impressed by all of the ways that DCS integrates faith in their daily activities. I highly recommend Dutton Christian School to anyone looking for a new school.
