🖤 BLACK OUT DAY TO SUPPORT THE WOLVERINES! 🖤

Dade Elementary showed up in a BIG way today to support our Dade County Wolverine football team! 🏈

From Pre-K to 5th grade, our students and staff joined in on the BLACK OUT theme and showed just how much Wolverine pride we have at DES!

We loved seeing all of the creativity, school spirit, and WOLVERINE pride throughout the building today!

Next week’s theme: REDNECK DAY! 🤠
Get ready to show your Wolverine spirit and have some fun as we keep supporting our teams all season long!

Let’s go, Wolverines! 🏈

Parents please be aware that buses just left DES five minutes ago and will be late dropping off your students. We apologize for the delay. The increased first-day traffic and rain caused a delay.

🚗 Car Rider Reminder

Parents/Guardians picking up students through the car rider line MUST have a Car Rider Tag displayed in their vehicle.

If you do not have a tag, you will be asked to pull out of the car line to the middle of the parking lot to complete a form and receive your car rider tag before your student can be released. This will cause a delay in your student's dismissal.

If you still need a Car Rider Tag, stop by Dade Elementary School anytime tomorrow to pick one up before dismissal.

Thank you for helping us keep dismissal safe and running smoothly!
