We are fortunate to have grants allowing us to hold before/after school programming for all levels. Our Arrow Academy has been going strong for several years now at DES/DMS. Arrow High is entering its second year at DHS and it is available for students this week!
The Class of 2010 donated a new bench for DHS in the memory of Jacob Craig. The bench has taken its place by the main entrance to DHS. Thank you Class of 2010 for your act of kindness and remembrance.
Thanks to the members of the DMS Wordsquad who provided the chalk art and positive words by the main entrance! Great job! #wordsquad #warriorpride
Congrats to the Indians for the week one victory and to @23dbeard for win #1 as the head coach of Indian football! #indianpride
