Principal's Message
We had a phenomenal first week! Teachers have spent much time reviewing both school-wide and classroom procedures. I have also seen some great relationship building with teachers and students. This lets me know it is going to be a great year!
As you may have heard we had a false-alarm fire drill on the first day of school during lunch. I was very impressed with our students and staff. Everyone followed directions perfectly. We evacuated and returned back to normal operations with minimal disruptions. It was very obvious teachers had already covered safety drills on the first day. Mr. Kin quickly identified the defective equipment, and the DCS maintenance team arrived promptly to make the repair. Phenomenal teamwork turned what could have been a major disruption into a minor distraction.
Parents, I thank you for your support as we continue to focus our work into growing every child every day. If you ever need anything please do not hesitate to reach out.
Sincerely,
Luke Bergeson
Principal
