Daniel Morgan Middle School

BIG THINGS ARE ROLLING into Daniel Morgan Middle School!
We are incredibly proud to announce that DMMS has been awarded the Outride: Riding for Focus grant! This initiative is dedicated to using cycling to improve students' physical health, mental well-being, and academic focus.

To prepare for this exciting launch, our very own Mr. Cote and Mr. Young traveled to Morgan Hill, California, over the summer for an intensive training summit. They joined over 40 educators from across the country to learn the best practices for bringing this program to life.

Thanks to this grant, our school will receive a full fleet of bicycles and helmets provided directly by Specialized Bicycles!

Here is what that means for our students:
Gear Up & Ride: A complete fleet of Specialized bikes and helmets ready for student use.
Safe Navigation: Students will learn crucial bike handling and safety skills to navigate our community safely.
Confidence & Freedom: The program gives students the freedom to explore, build confidence, and discover their surroundings on two wheels.

We can't wait to see our students hit the ground riding this year. Stay tuned for more updates, and please join us in thanking Mr. Cote and Mr. Young for their dedication to bringing this amazing opportunity to DMMS!

What a great first day of school! Thanks for sharing your children with us.
