Spirit Week Activities & Chapel

Monday was the start of a new and exciting week. It was the first day of spirit week and we began with a “Yee Haw”! On cowboy and cowgirl day everyone dressed up in their hats, boots, and bandannas to see who could make the best cowboy impression. Fashion disaster day was a mishmash of colors and creativity. Check out the photos on the blog!


Wednesday everyone dug through their closet and dressed in “Sunday Best” so that they could present themselves in a suitable way to worship God. Our chapel speaker, Mr. Shaun Fink, told us that if we acted like a Christian (like Christ) then we would be treated with respect. Sometimes we hear “If you want to be treated like an adult then act like one.” When someone says that to us we need to think about what we were doing or how we were acting that caused them to say that to us. If we act immature then we will be treated that way, but if we act with maturity then our age will no longer be a limiting factor.


The three main components of good communication are:

A Good Vocabulary

A Good Attitude

Being a Good Listener


If you want to be treated like an adult – start acting like one.

If you want to be treated like a Christian – start acting like one.

If you want to be known as a Christian – start acting like one.

Chapel - What do you use your speech for?

What a powerful message! Pastor Betts told the school that faith comes from what we hear, and what we hear should come from God. He told us that what we say affects what others hear. If we put labels on people they will measure themselves by those labels. As Pastor Betts said, “He is a man.” But if you think that one person is a man, then what is everyone else. It is only important what God thinks and not what others think. Don’t speak opposition to God’s plan!

If you would like to listen to DCHS chapel services they are available at:

If you would like to help raise money for the Multiple Sclerosis fund, there is a 75 mile bike ride called Bike to the Bay on October 3rd and 4th. Every year there is a different fund raising event. This year it is for multiple sclerosis. Nick and Chris’dad has started his own team for the event. His team is called KB Memory Team. As most of you know Chris and Nick's mom and baby brother were killed in an automobile accident last November. The team stands for Kirstie & Billy Memory Team. There is a website that you can go to, to donate money. All of the money collected will go to the Multiple Sclerosis fund. Their goal is to raise $5,000!

Chapel & Upcoming J-term – September 2, 2009

This week’s chapel speaker was Michael DiGiacoma. This past summer he took a mission trip to Africa. He had the chance to view what people go through in that part of the world. “Every morning, students get up and walk about 15 miles to school dragging along their little brothers or sisters,” says Michael. Most of the older children are the head of their households at the age of 12 to 14 having lost their parents to the aids epidemic which is killing many Africans. Michael says that the most joyful day is when everyone comes together to worship. The church is outside and everyone is happy and worshiping God.

Mr. Dukes also talked to the school about the Jamaica J-term trip. DCHS will be offering this as one option for the J-term. Be on the lookout for J-term information in the upcoming weeks. If you think that the Jamaica trip might be something your are interested in please attend the meeting Tuesday, September 08, 2009 at 6:30 during the PTF meeting.
