Hello families! Please download the ParentSquare app to stay connected and ready for next school year!

This app will replace ClassDojo as our main communication platform. I will keep posting in dojo reminders over the summer until we switch over in the beginning of the school year!

Once you download the app, you will be able to see current school year information and confirm your account. Information for the 2026–2027 school year will become available once the district activates it later this summer.

Downloading and setting up your account now will help make communication easier and ensure you are ready to receive important updates for next year.

Thank you for your support!

Lee County Schools is announcing a leadership transition at Deep River Elementary School effective July 1, 2026.

After serving the Deep River community with dedication and compassion, Principal Emily Coggins will step down to focus on personal and family priorities. We thank her for her unwavering commitment to our students, staff and families and wish her all the best in this next chapter.

We are also excited to welcome Sal Cosimo as the new principal of Deep River Elementary. A familiar face in Lee County Schools, Cosimo brings more than a decade of experience in education and leadership and looks forward to building on the school's strong tradition of excellence.
