Dealey Dragon Update
September 2016
Message from the Principal
We have had an amazing start to our school year here at Dealey. Although we are still working out the kinks with the morning and afternoon bus schedules, the teachers and students have smoothly transitioned back into another year and it's business as usual around here.
Thank you to those who were able to come out to our Open House on the 18th. If you didn't have a chance to make it out that night, I hope you had a chance to meet your child's teacher this week or at least receive some information about how to get in touch with them when necessary. Remember, all of our staff members' emails are listed on our website under the faculty/staff tab at www.dallasisd.org/dealey.
I'd like to give a HUGE shout-out to our Dad's Club for their help with morning carpool the first week! It was extremely helpful to have some extra hands opening up car doors, directing traffic, and crossing students. Thank you so much!
In closing, I'd like to say thank you for your continued support to our school. It is truly a privilege to be part of a community where parents, teachers, and students care for one another and strive to build positive relationships that support academic and social growth.
Looking forward to another successful year!

Meet the Counselor - Ms. Winners
My name is Latasha Winners and I am happy to introduce myself as the counselor at Dealey Montessori and International Academy.
I grew up in Dallas and attended Dallas ISD schools before graduating from Richardson High School. I went to Texas Women’s University for my Bachelor’s. I taught in Dallas ISD for five years. I have taught kinder, second, and third grade.
I received my M.Ed. in School Counseling from Prairie View A & M. I was at Jerry Junkins Elementary for nine years as the counselor. I really enjoy working with kids and encouraging them to strive for their personal best. I am thrilled to be working with the students, teachers, administrators, and parents whom I so highly regard.
My spare time is spent with my husband, Mercury. We do not have any kids or pets. :-)
Please do not hesitate to contact me for assistance. Wishing everyone a great 2016-2017 school year!

New Staff Members!
Congratulations, Ms. Weiske!
Ms. Weiske was awarded the Service Above
Self – Outstanding Teacher of the Year Award
by the Dallas Rotary Club on Wednesday, August 17th.
Ms. Weiske was recognized and applauded for going the “extra mile” for her parents and students. We are all proud of Ms. Weiske and know the passion and commitment she brings to our profession. Ms. Weiske had several parents with her as she received the award and presented a poem written by her and one of her students at the ceremony.
Way to go, Ms. Weiske!
Congratulations from the entire Dealey Family!
Gentle Reminder: Afternoon Pick-Up
If you feel that you need a little extra time here and there, our after school program, Champions, has a drop-off service that may be used on an as needed basis. There is a fee for this service. For more information, please call our main office or visit a Champions representative in our cafeteria after school.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation!
