Happy Sunday DDS Families,
On Friday, we hosted a Welcome to Kindergarten and Open House for students who will be new to DDS next year. June is always an exciting time when we are ending one successful year of learning and planning for our next school year together. Thank you to all our families who were able to join us!
A new school year inevitably brings change. We will be saying goodbye to two staff members this year. Ms. Christensen will be returning to her previous school, Auburn Bay. Mrs. Blais will be exploring a new opportunity outside of the classroom. We wish both teachers all the best in their next adventures! Once we have new staff confirmed, we will introduce them to our community.
Have a great week ahead!
Heather, Monique, Sue, and Debbie
