District Spelling Bee
DeSoto ISD District Spelling Bee will be held on Tuesday, February 11, 2020.
Attendance Matters!
DeSoto ISD wants to share tips with our parents/guardians on how to decrease attendance issues and avoid truancy by encouraging parents/guardians to be involved with homework, set a time for your child to go to bed, inform your child's teacher or other campus personnel when he/she will be absent.
Get to Class on-Time!
DeSoto ISD encourages students to THINK BEFORE YOU POST
- Keeping with the district’s FOCUS initiative which hones in on Finance, Organizational Redesign, Campuses and Classrooms, Unity and Systems and sustainability, DeSoto ISD urges everyone to think before you post (Systems and Sustainability)!
