Principal's Message:
Welcome to our weekly update where we share the latest news and updates from the middle school classroom! We hope this newsletter finds you well and that your child is enjoying their journey through grades 6-8. As always, we are here to support their academic progress and ensure they have a successful school year.
September was a great month for the DMS Cardunals. Volleyball and Cross Country are in full swing. With it being the first full month we've seen a lot of our groups, clubs, and activities really take off. We appreciate the Cardunal families taking the time to make these opportunities a reality for our students.
