Continuing to be Safe!
Please remember to review COVID-19 safety guidelines with your child. Masks are required to be worn by staff and students upon arrival to campus, during all transitions, in classrooms when up and moving around, in hallways, at dismissal, and in classrooms when proper social distancing of at least 6ft. isn't possible. All students who wish to wear their masks even when social distancing is possible, may certainly do so. Thank you for reviewing these guidelines with your child.

A Word from our PTO President:
Now, with COVID19, restrictions on fundraisers are making raising funds for these purposes difficult. We were not able to hold an in-person Open House where we normally sale PTO memberships.
With this being said, we are asking for your support. We would be honored if you are willing to help by joining our DMS PTO by donating $10 for a family membership. All donations for membership go directly to the classroom and students. We want to thank you for helping to make this a great year for our students and teachers. Please send your donation of $10 in an envelope to school with the following information:
PTO Membership
Child's Name/Family Name
Date
In closing, we would love to have volunteers to join our working committee. If you are interested in volunteering, please call the school and leave a message for our PTO. Someone will call you back with information.
