State Science Fair: Superior rating 🔬

Congratulations to Darielle Hudson, a student at Charity Adams Earley Girls Academy, for receiving a Superior score on her science fair project at the 2026 State Science Day. Darielle scored a 39/40.

We are so proud of you!

Our Community Cafes were a success! ☀️

Families and community members came together to discuss how influential a student's home and community can be in their learning. From this, our DPS team created the draft Title I School-Parent/Guardian Compact.

This compact is now open for review. Please take the time to read it over and submit your comments or suggestions.

Westwood's Annual Mad City Money event took place in May! 💸

Students participate in a budget simulation, where they face challenges such as insurance, home ownership, jobs, and children. It's a great way for students to decide what's important when working on a budget.

Thanks to everyone who volunteered!

Belle Haven Elementary 6th grade students worked on their legacy murals, and they turned out amazing.

These murals were a part of a year-long initiative at our elementary schools, and each deserved its own post! Stay tuned to see more schools.
