Dear Families,
Thank you for your cooperation throughout the last three weeks as we navigated AZM2 and AIMS testing. We will be facilitating make up sessions next week. Please be on the look out for individual communication if your students need to report to campus for make up sessions.
8th grade families, if you missed it, here is a link to the 8th grade letter regarding promotion and the last week of school:

Regarding the 8th grade promotion, please know that in order to participate, families must notify us of the intention to participate. You can find the form to return to us in the link above, along with information about the other promotion activities and the dress code for promotion.
This morning, the Desert Wind 7th & 8th grade in-person and online Blended Learning Students took a virtual field trip to Auschwitz through the East Valley JCC & Center for Holocaust Education. We were led through the camp by Jerzy Wojcik, who spoke to the students live from Oswiecim, Poland. This virtual field trip was the culmination of the 7th graders WW2 unit in social studies and the 8th graders completion of the novels Night and The Boy in the Striped Pajamas in language arts. The field trip included a tour of the camp entrance, bunk houses, commander's quarters, gas chambers and memorials. At the end of the tour students were able to ask questions and have a discussion with our tour guide. We are very thankful for having this important and meaningful opportunity for our students.
At DWMS, we are always looking to make connections with the community and the world around us. We are hopeful that we will be able to continue to grow and offer more opportunities like the virtual field trip of Auschwitz.
Thank you,
Carlos Alvarado
