Happy Friday DDS Families,
As we wrap up a busy and successful first part of the school year, we want to extend our warmest wishes to all our DDS families. We are grateful for your continued support, partnership, and involvement in our school community. Our students have worked hard, shown growth, and contributed to a positive and vibrant learning environment every day.
Thank you to DDS families for spoiling our staff with an abundance of treats this week. We very much appreciate your generosity and thoughtfulness!
We hope this winter break provides your family with time to rest, recharge, and enjoy meaningful moments together. We look forward to welcoming students back in the new year, ready for more learning, connection, and opportunities.
Wishing you a safe, peaceful, and joyful winter break!
