Evaluation Information
#DexterParkPride
I am thrilled to announce that our school is being highlighted by The Department of Education for our inclusion work. This publication is going out to over 2,000 educators statewide. A publication such as this will have a major impact- we will soon be getting great deal of interested schools looking to learn from us. I could not be prouder of the hard work you do for ALL of Orange's students!
