Hello Eagles!
Welcome Back and I hope you had a great Spring Break 2025. We have seven (7) weeks of school left to go, so please keep your child's focus on finishing up EAGLE STRONG by passing all classes and doing well on our state tests.
Please be sure to review the dress code below and adhere to it. Although the DCSD Student Dress Code policy allows students to wear a variety of clothing items, please remember that your child is a professional student and should dress appropriately for a school setting.
Here are few reminders for the week of April 14, 2025
Students are not allowed to order and receive food via DoorDash, UberEats, etc. during the school day. If delivered to the school, the food will not be received and we are not responsible for the food. If a student is caught with food, then it will be confiscated and taken to an administrator's office. In that case, the student can pick up their food after school. Again, we are not responsible for the food, so PLEASE DO NOT order nor send food to the school.
