FREE PRIZE - NO MATTER WHAT - FOR EVERY KID!

We frantically need your help and it only takes about 3 minutes or less! Our school's Title I budget amounts are based upon the number of students who qualify for free and/or reduced lunches. This year breakfasts and lunches will be free for all elementary students but we will still need families to make sure they sign up here just in case they might qualify! Those who already completed this for us, your child will receive their prize this coming week!

Free Reduced Application for Families with ONLY elementary school students click here!

Free Reduced Application for families with elementary & middle and/or high school students click here!

ATTENDANCE-Students that miss just two days of school a month can fall significantly behind and continue through middle and high school.

ANYTIME your child will not be at school, please call the office at 270-852-7450. DPCS policy allows families to have up to 8 sick call in days per year.
