Thank You!
Thank you to out wonderful parents for helping provide snacks for the teachers on our early release days. Conference week means long hours, and that extra fuel helped get them through. It was wonderful seeing so many of you here this week.
Ms. Langford would also like to thank all the awesome parents that helped out during Book Fair! We couldn't have done it without you!
Missing Something?
Is your child missing their coat?...sweatshirt?...lunch box?...sibling? There's a good chance it could be waiting to be retrieved in our Lost & Found! Please be sure to stop by and take a peek on your next visit. We will be donating all unclaimed items after Bingo Night next Friday, 3/16. (Out Lost & Found is located outside the cafeteria next to the gym, and en route to the playground.)
Fun Run Update!
Thank you again for all your support with our fun run. Yesterday was our last official count day, and we are excited to announce that we have collected approximately 87% of all pledges. If you still have a few pledges out there that need to be turned in, it's not too late; simply send them in to your child's teacher in the form of cash or check (preferred) made out to Dyer Elementary.

Georgia Parent Survey
Parents,
Please help us improve our school by taking a few minutes to complete an important survey for the State of Georgia.
The Georgia Parent Survey is from the State of Georgia and assists with our College and Career Readiness Climate Star Rating. You may complete the State survey on your computer, smartphone, or tablet or in the Dyer Media Center. We would like ALL parents to complete this State survey, and all responses are anonymously submitted directly to the Georgia Department of Education for analysis. Please click here to access the State survey.
We hope you will take a few minutes to complete this important survey to help us improve Dyer Elementary. Thanks for your support!
