SURPRISE ATTENDANCE DAY!
Once a month, we choose a special day to celebrate what matters: being here, being ready, and belonging! Yesterday’s surprise? 🎶 MUSIC DURING LUNCH! 🎶 We’re celebrating our Tigers for showing up, being ready to learn, and making DSE a place where everyone belongs.

But now we have an important question…
What will our Surprise Attendance Day be next month? And what will the surprise celebration be?

Keep showing up, Tigers…you never know what might be waiting for you!

What an incredible day of learning at DSE! Our teachers enjoyed professional learning community learning walks as each grade level visited the grade above to observe, collaborate, and learn together. Pre-K visited kindergarten, kindergarten visited 1st grade, 1st visited 2nd, 2nd visited 3rd, 3rd visited 4th, 4th visited 5th, and 5th grade headed to the middle school!

What a powerful opportunity to strengthen connections, celebrate learning, and grow together across grade levels. When we learn from one another, we create even greater opportunities for our students to thrive. We are always launching leaders, both in our classrooms and among our educators!
