About 3,000 community members participate in these low-cost classes each year. Singles, seniors, professionals and children can find something of interest. Explore the full range of class offerings at Gove, Hamilton and Morey Neighborhood Center.

“The Community School is a way that we welcome our community members into our schools and invite them to be lifelong learners. We encourage people of all ages to take advantage of these courses,” said Catherine Barnes, program coordinator.

The DCS catalog is available at the Administration Building, 900 Grant St., Kaleidoscope Corner sites and Gove, Hamilton and Morey schools. It will soon be displayed online at http://dce.dpsk12.org/
