In the inaugural season in the DVCAC, the Titans volleyball team took the number one seed in the northern division. Their seeding allowed them a first round bye in the DVCAC playoffs. Their first game, hosted at home, would be against Calvary. In their two regular season games against Calvary, the Titans and Lions split. The Titans edged the Lions by a mere 4 points in overall scoring over the two games combined. It was no surprise that the playoff game went to the maximum five games. Unfortunately, in game five, the Lions had the upper hand. Their win over the Titans was followed with a win in the DVCAC championship game on Saturday. The Titans season ended with a loss in the DVCAC third place game over Holly Grove.

The Titans were represented in the DVCAC All-Star game by Sophia Brown, Becca Garber, Anelise Corbett, and Lucia Urti. Lucia was named to DVCAC 2nd team All-Conference. She led her league in assists. Sophia was named to the DVCAC first team All-Conference. She led the league with most the aces and kills. We look forward to the girls growing in skill for the seasons to come.

Our students memorize Bible verses throughout the school year. We are taught in Scripture to hide God’s Word in our hearts (Ps. 119:11). God also promises that His Word will not return empty but will accomplish what He purposes and will succeed in the thing for which He sent it (Isaiah 55:11). Memorizing Scripture is one of the most important parts of our students’ education!

Verse for November 4
Isaiah 14:24
The Lord of hosts has sworn: “As I have planned, so shall it be, and as I have purposed, so shall it stand.” 

Coming soon, DVCS will begin using an integrated version of the FACTS Tuition Management and FACTS SIS systems. This update to FACTS will be time saving and nearly effortless for you.

We are pleased to provide the Reading Nook: a space for articles and other readings that are pertinent and helpful as we embark upon classical Christian education together in this community.

American parents are confused; they think you have to choose between being strict or loving.” …“Parents are not looking at Scripture or evidence but are looking to the patterns of this world. Many parents today are more interested in protecting a 9-year-old’s right to free speech than in protecting the moral order of the classroom or the community.” The abandonment of authority is not the right response to abuses of authority. 

“Discipline Without Destruction: Correcting Eye-Rolling Without Crushing the Child” 

If you have an article you would like to recommend, send the link to readingnook@dvclassical.org.

Let’s celebrate our teacher and staff birthdays!

As a general rule, we ask interested parents to send in a special treat of some sort either immediately before or on the day of the teacher’s birthday. If it is a classroom teacher’s birthday, you may want to consider sending in treats like cupcakes or cookies that can also be shared with the teacher’s students. We ask that you try to limit birthday gifts to $25 or less. The idea is to celebrate the teacher on their birthday and not overwhelm them with expensive gifts. A list of preferences a teacher has in terms of favorite drinks, foods, restaurants, Amazon Wishlist, etc can be found in the signup. For questions, please contact Rebecca Shimkus at rshimkus32@yahoo.com.
