School Seal

"For every member of the DCian community, the school emblem represents craftsmanship and dedication. Each symbol embodies the illustrious mission and vision of the school.

The DCian motto, inscribed as STRIVE-SEEK-LEARN, urges every member of the community to strive for justice, seek truth, and embrace moral virtues. The array of noble laurels symbolizes honor, distinguished achievements, and meritocracy in every endeavor undertaken by a DCian. The tree with radiating rings symbolizes the guardians of knowledge: the Mind to think, the Heart to feel, and the Hand to execute actions guided by the Truth." [9]
