Parent Climate Survey

Parents, I hope you can take a few moments to complete our annual climate survey.  The survey is available online and is specific to DHMS, so if you have students at another PCS school, you will have to complete their survey through their unique link.  Please take a few minutes to respond to the survey at this link:

https://eprovesurveys.advanc-ed.org/surveys/#/action/122707/36793

Once you have completed the survey, print the final page, that reads “Thank you for taking the survey” and your student can redeem that page on Wednesday for popcorn during lunch.

Extended Learning Program

Our extended learning program (ELP) starts this week.  Pink ELP forms complete with dates, times, and locations were sent home with students last week.  All ELP Sessions start at 8am. Please fill out the ELP application and send it in with your child.  They can turn it in to their Grade Level Office.
