Curriculum

DSHA’s college preparatory curriculum challenges each student to think critically and communicate effectively while preparing for her college experience. While the curriculum is rigorous, DSHA faculty, administrators and counselors will emphasize the importance of balance in a student’s academic course load, along with co-curriculars, faith formation opportunities, and personal health throughout the four-year experience. The academic curriculum is designed to maximize the intellectual abilities of our young women, as faculty work to educate with the long-view in mind: shaping a successful college student who, in turn, becomes a successful doctor or teacher, community member or CEO.
