Detroit Country Day School, often abbreviated DCD or DCDS, is a K-12 private school in Franklin, Michigan. It is not to be confused with its rival Detroit Catholic Central, with whom it usually contends for the state championship.
DCDS has both middle school and high school programs. The middle school team won the Michigan State Championship in 2015, 2016, 2018, and 2019. They tied for 29th place at both the 2014 and 2015 MSNCTs. The high school team has been a longtime state powerhouse and has seen success on the national stage, placing top 3 at HSNCT three times throughout its history. In 2021, they also placed 11th and 3rd at the NSC and ONCT, respectively.
Since 2021, the school has produced an annual housewrite called DART, on which it hosts a namesake invitational.
