The development of The Dayton School (TDS) was produced out of a need for quality middle and high schools in an area that lacks such programming. TDS is located in an underserved community that is in need of a school community that prepares adolescents for life after high school. TDS caters to youth entering grades 6th- 8th grade, and will add a grade level each year. The School incorporates project based learning alongside holistic teaching to ensure all students’ needs are being met.
