Educating every child for confidence today and contribution tomorrow.

A Message From the Principal

DHES Families,

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!! I hope you have been enjoying the sunshine. It looks to be a nice early spring weekend to be out in the fresh air.

It’s picture time!! Class pictures will be taken of the whole class on March 22. Individual pictures

will be taken of your student only if they have a payment envelope on the day of pictures. No retakes are available. Please remember to bring the payment envelope on picture day.

Note for 5th Grade Band Parents: When you are dropping off your student at NTMS in the morning please pull all the way forward. They are having long back ups at times due to parents stopping at the front doors rather than pulling all the way forward. Please make sure your student is ready to get out of the car right away when you are in the drop off line. If they are not ready, you can always pull around and park in the parking lot or in the gravel parking near the gym to allow your student more time.

Please remember that Thursday, March 23rd is Parent Teacher Conference Day for the elementary schools. It is a non-student day. We look forward to connecting with our families during this time.

Have a great weekend!

Thanks,

Kevin Anderson, Principal

Dear Families,

The book fair is back at Dieringer Heights Elementary! We are looking forward to seeing our families’

faces and getting books into the hands of our students. Remember all proceeds will go towards the

libraries for keeping those shelves stocked with all the books our students love to read!

Important Items to Know:

Location: Dieringer Heights Library
Book Fair Dates: March 20th – March 24th
Hours: M/T/W 8:15am – 3:30pm Thursday, Conference day: 8:30am – 4:30pm

An Online Book Fair will also be running concurrent to the in-person fair

 Students at DHES will be shopping during their library time and during lunch times throughout

the week. We highly encourage families to take advantage of eWallet as it makes it easier for

students to shop and significantly helps our volunteers keep the book fair moving smoothly.

Please avoid sending your student(s) to school with baggies of coins.

 For both LTES and DHES students we are offering families the opportunity to send our book fair

volunteers an emailed shopping list (from the flyer books only) that we can fill and have

delivered to the students in class. eWallets will be required for payment (see ewallet

information below).

o Email for Shopping List: ptabookfair21@gmail.com

 eWallets: these will be the best option for all students when shopping the book fair! We highly

encourage families to use the eWallet option for their students…all unused funds will become a

gift card to use at future fairs or online anytime.

Dear Families:

On Monday, March 20th, Community Health Care’s dental team will be at Dieringer Heights Elementary to provide exams, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants (for molars that have fully erupted and have surfaces for which sealants would be beneficial). If you would like your child to participate, please complete and return the permission form by March 10th. Permission forms will be sent home with your child. Participating students will bring home a written assessment of the exam findings and any additional dental needs. If your child is insured, Community Health Care will bill your insurance. If your child is not insured, all services are free!

Thank you,

Terry Woodall, R.N.

District Nurse
