Dannelly Elementary

08/08/2026

Good morning, Dannelly Families! Dannelly Elementary School will be open today, Saturday, August 8, and tomoorow, Sunday, August 9, 2026, from 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. to assist families with student registration and withdrawals before the first day of school.

Families registering a student should bring the child's valid birth certificate, current Alabama Immunization Certificate, valid parent/guardian ID, and required proof of residence. Transfer students should also bring withdrawal papers and the student's last report card. If someone other than the biological parent is enrolling the child, court-issued legal guardianship documentation is required.

Please take advantage of this opportunity to ensure your Bulldog is ready for the first day of school on Monday, August 10! We look forward to serving you!
