Happy Friday DKMS families! It has been another great week here at the middle school.
6th, 7th, and 8th grade Track practice will begin on Monday March 18, 2024. This practice will begin at 3:10 in the cafeteria. Please make sure your child has a current physical on file in the high school athletic office.
On Thursday March 14, 2024, we are inviting you to DKMS’s Spring Parent-Teacher Conferences. These conferences will be held from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm. These will be open conferences, meaning you will not have to schedule with teachers, you are free to stop in and talk with your child’s teacher anytime from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm Thursday night.
Conferences are a wonderful time to discuss your child’s successes, areas of growth, grades, NWEA test results, behavior, attendance, and field trip eligibility.
If you are unable to attend in person or during this conference time, please reach out to your child’s teachers via email or by calling the school office at (269) 623-1541, so a phone conference can be scheduled.
