Developmental Studies Center (DSC) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting children’s academic, ethical, and social development.

Since 1980, we have created research-based curricula and provided professional development services to help schools and after-school programs become caring, inclusive communities and stimulating, supportive places in which to learn. Our programs build students’ academic skills while simultaneously deepening their commitment to the values of kindness, helpfulness, personal responsibility, and respect for others.

Helping all students become good learners and good people—that is our mission.
