Exciting things happening at DPS...we brought back the fall scrimmages and a new plasma cutter was delivered today!
Don't forget the free meal deal at 6:30 and FB scrimmage at 7:30 TONIGHT!
And the bad news update: No Kona Ice tonight (transmission went out of their truck)!
Preschool started this week! We are learning routines and classroom expectations and everyone is catching on! We are further developing our fine motor skills by working with playdough and using crayons in our handwriting books. Every day is a new day, and these kids never cease to amaze me with their sense of wonder, curiosity and kindness towards others. It's going to be an amazing year!
Join us on August 30th for an informational meeting about FBLA. Pizza will be provided, but make sure you sign up by August 27th, or you WILL NOT be getting pizza as we probably will not have enough ordered.
It's VOLLEYBALL TIME!
