Early Dismissal Drill TODAY - Dismissal at 2:15pm
Students will be dismissing early today. Walkers will need to be picked up at 2:15 at the front door of the bus garage. Mrs. Odell will be there to release your child. All bus riders will depart around 2:20, after walkers have been dismissed. Please plan for your child to arrive home approximately 15-20 minutes earlier than usual. In addition, this will be a test of our all-call system. As many of you are fully aware, Tuesday evening we had multiple, late night phone calls that went out due to a glitch in our system. We apologize for those late-night calls. They have assured us the issue has been resolved and it will not happen again. We greatly appreciate your understanding with that!
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Tomorrow Friday, October 13th, DCS will hold its annual early release drill. Once again, this year it will be coupled with an evacuation drill. The details are as follows:
At 2:00 pm, students will evacuate the building and proceed to the bus loop for attendance.
After attendance is taken, students will move to the bus garage to shelter in place.
At 2:15, walkers may be picked up by parents/guardians at the front door of the bus garage. Mrs. Odell will be there with students to release them.
After all walkers have been dismissed, bus riding students along with self-transport students, will depart directly from the bus garage.
Students may return to campus for normal after school activities (sports practice).
An all-call will take place the morning of October 13th to remind parents of the drill and to test the all-call system. If you do not receive a call that day, please contact the principal’s office at 607-363-2111.

This year's Reading theme will be Medieval Times. The students had a kick off today with William the Crusader. He joined our PreK-6 classes to talk about the importance of reading. Students will have the opportunity to read this year and then be knighted when they have reached a goal. Each month classes will be in a jousting tournament to see who can read the most! At the end of the month the winner will be given a flag for their knight to hold and bragging rights of what they have accomplished.
There will be no school for students tomorrow, 10/6 and Monday 10/9. Have a great weekend!
Tomorrow is NY Thursday
DCS "Buddy Bench” donated by Student Council & DCS Junior Class.
The bench is for a student that is feeling sad, left out, different, lonely etc. If other students see that someone is sitting there and needs a friend, they can go and talk to that student and help them to feel better and invite them to play or just help put a smile on their face.
