Thank you for attending Exhibition Night!

November 16, 2023 by Erin D'Souza

We had a blast at Exhibition Night and we hope you did, too! Thank you for making time to come see what DVC is all about. The energy of the staff, students, parents, alumni, community members, and prospective families was really terrific. We’re sorry the evening had to end a little early – the chemistry experiments in our lab were a little too much for our high-tech building to handle. 🙂 Please share any feedback you have about the evening here, and enjoy a few pics! Thanks again for coming!

Happy Veterans Day, DVC! We appreciate and honor all those who have served our country, and we hope that everyone enjoys the weekend!

Our 12th graders visited UC Irvine this week and got special DVC alumni-led tours of the campus. On Wednesday, 11/15, our seniors will Press Submit on their Cal State and UC college applications, and we wish them the best of luck throughout this college application season!

THURSDAY is Exhibition Night at DVC! We invite all families, friends, and community members to join us on Thursday, 11/16 from 5:30 – 7:00pm as our students showcase their projects. All DVC students are required to attend; students in grades 10 & 12 will have their projects on display.

Canned Food Drive: In the spirit of the season of giving, DVC is requesting a donation of any canned goods as an entrance fee at Exhibition. Please drop off your canned goods / non-perishables in the Wolves Den (the main table at the top of the stairs). We will be partnering with the L.A. Regional Food Bank. Here are the items they suggest: peanut butter, canned soup, canned fruit, canned vegetables, canned stew, canned fish, canned beans, and pasta (whole grain preferred). We are ever grateful for this community!
