DCE PTO needs volunteers for The Holiday Shop from December 1-December 12. ❄️ Volunteers are what make our kids’ Holiday Shop magical! We can only host it if we have enough helping hands, so if you’re able to spare some time, we’d be truly grateful. School Access is required to volunteer at this event.
Would you like to shop with your student? RSVP through the school website EVENT RSVP FORM found on the homepage of the website or click the link above. School Access is required to participate in this event.
Things to Know
2025-2026 Student Supply Lists
Dismissal Changes
DISMISSAL CHANGES are accepted until
2:00 p.m. (M, T, TH, F) and 1:00
p.m. (W)
EARLY CHECK-OUTS (for any reason) must be
completed by 2:10 p.m. (M,T, TH, F) and 1:10 p.m. (W).
Your respect for our dismissal policy helps maintain safety and security as we complete attendance/dismissal change/check-out reports accurately before students prepare for and move to their dismissal stations. It is often very difficult to locate students or get them ready to leave early during the last minutes prior to dismissal bell. Teachers and students are completing lessons,
packing up, or on the move to dismissal stations.
Thank you for your understanding and compliance as we work together for all students’ scholastic success!
