The 2026 high school retreat will take place September 16-18 at Woodlands Camp in Cleveland, GA. Retreat dates are quickly approaching, so we wanted to let you know what to expect -- particularly for our new families!


The goal of retreat is to create community within DCS as well as to set up our year with a time of worship and spiritual growth. Retreat is one of the fondest memories students have at DCS. We leave the textbooks, homework, and city limit signs behind and focus on strengthening, building, and creating relationships that often last for life.

Whether you’re a dynamic duo, or a group ready to steal the spotlight, we want you to bring your A-game and deliver a mesmerizing performance that will leave the audience roaring for more.
