learning Tracks
DC2 Learning Tracks provide year-by-year support that helps students build confidence, clarity, and readiness throughout high school.
Freshman Track
Build the Foundation for Everything That Comes Next
Freshman year is not about college applications — it’s about learning how to succeed in high school without burning out.
​
The DC2 Freshman Track helps students adjust to high school academically, emotionally, and practically. It focuses on building strong habits early, managing stress, understanding how grades and transcripts work, and exploring interests without pressure.
​
Students learn:
-
how high school really works (credits, GPA, transcripts)
-
how to manage time, stress, and overwhelm
-
how to recover from setbacks and ask for help
-
how to explore activities safely and strategically
-
what colleges actually care about — and what does not matter yet
This track lays the groundwork for the next three years so students don’t spend junior year scrambling to fix things that could have been built calmly from the start.
​
Best for: 9th graders, students transitioning into high school, and families who want a steady, low-stress beginning.​​​​
Junior
Track
Turn Preparation Into Action
​
​Junior year is the most demanding, and the most misunderstood, year of high school.​​
​
​The DC2 Junior Track provides structured guidance through testing, college research, academic rigor, and decision-making, while helping students manage pressure and avoid burnout.​​
​
​
Students learn:
-
how to approach the SAT/ACT strategically (or decide not to)
-
how to research colleges effectively and build a balanced list
-
how admissions offices evaluate applications
-
how to manage workload, stress, and expectations
-
how to prepare for senior year applications before deadlines hit
​This track ensures students enter senior year confident, organized, and prepared — not overwhelmed.
​
Best for: 11th graders, students entering testing and college research, and families who want clarity during the most intense year.​
Sophomore Track
Explore, Build Skills, and Start Gaining Direction
​​
Sophomore year is where students begin turning awareness into intentional growth.
​​
The DC2 Sophomore Track focuses on exploration with purpose. Students strengthen academic habits, begin meaningful involvement outside the classroom, and start learning how interests connect to future paths — without locking themselves into decisions too early.
​​
Students learn:
-
how to deepen extracurricular involvement
-
how leadership actually develops over time
-
how to explore majors and careers realistically
-
how to build early experience through volunteering, work, or programs
-
how to start thinking about testing, credits, and college pathways without pressure
This track helps students move from “I’m figuring things out” to “I’m starting to understand myself.”
​
Best for: 10th graders, students who feel unsure about direction, and families who want momentum without stress.
​
Senior
Track
Apply With Confidence and Choose What’s Right for You
​
Senior year is not just about getting in — it’s about making the right decision.
​
The DC2 Senior Track walks students step-by-step through applications, essays, interviews, financial aid, and final choices, while also preparing them emotionally for the transition to college or post-secondary plans.
​
Students learn:
-
how to complete applications accurately and on time
-
how to write authentic, effective essays
-
how to navigate interviews, waitlists, and deferrals
-
how to understand and compare financial aid offers
-
how to choose a college (or alternative path) with clarity and confidence
-
how to prepare for the transition from high school to independence
​
This track emphasizes agency, self-trust, and informed decision-making — not panic or prestige.
​
Best for: 12th graders, students applying to college or alternative pathways, and families navigating final decisions.
