For a small school, we have several layers of guidance and support for our students in terms of social/emotional health and career/post-secondary guidance. All students and staff will take the QPR (Question-Persuade-Refer) training through ESU #5, as well as lessons throughout the year. We wanted to share with our parents, guardians, and students, who they could reach out to and what each of the roles are going to be at DPS this year...

Let's meet our counselor team...

  • Mr. Todd Porter, elementary guidance & he will also be proctoring a dual credit Math class & General Science. Mr. Porter's office will be just inside of the elementary entry.
