DMS News Update

Happy New Year!

As we start up with January it is wise to evaluate how the year is progressing.  Now is a good time to take a look at areas of weakness to make improvements and areas of strength to support us through the rest of the year. I encourage all parents to spend some time with your child reflecting on his/her year and what they hope to accomplish before the end of the year.  

Our school improvement committee has been working on a few items we would like to change this year.  Specifically we are looking at our attendance monitoring procedures, ways to support students who are struggling with homework completion and the structure and expectations of sports study hall.  We would like to discuss these topics at our next Site Based Team meeting which will be held on Monday the 25th of January from 3:30-4:15.  We would like to have some parents attend this meeting to be a part of these decisions and provide your perspective and insights.  If you are interested in attending, please contact the office.  Information about any changes we make will be coming in a letter with report cards at the second ten weeks.

SKI CLUB will NOT ski on January 5th (the initial first ski date).  Weather permitting, we will ski for the first time on January 12th. I will try to send out an SNN to keep you posted on ski club.

Have a great start to the new year!
