Dear Parents/Guardians,As we approach the end of the 2020-21 school year, I would like to share a few important dates and procedures to plan for....
- All virtual and in person students will return their laptop, books and calculators on Thursday, June 10th. In person students will return all supplies to their homeroom teachers. All virtual students will do so in the main office of DEMS. Please make sure all computers are cleaned and placed in their carrying case along with the power cord
- June 11th, 14th, & 15th will be half day/virtual days. There will not be any in person instruction on these final three days. The final three days will be used for students in need of extra credit. All extra credit must be arranged and approved by the subject area teacher. Only students in jeopardy of failing the subject for the school year will be eligible for extra credit work.
- The 11th, 14th, and 15th will also be used for the primary teachers to continue and complete their end of the year assessments.
- There will not be any live sessions or posted assignments on the 11th, 14th, and 15th.
