Dear Diamond Lake School Families,

We are looking forward to Parent-Teacher Conferences on Thursday, March 19th. We are excited to share all the growth students have made this year and discuss goals for the months ahead. These conferences are student-led, so please remember to bring your child with you to be part of this special opportunity to reflect on their learning.

Please also note that Thursday, March 19th is an Early Release Day, and students will be dismissed at 11:00 a.m. due to conferences.

There will be no school on Friday, March 20th, and a reminder that Spring Break begins the following week.

Attendance did not meet our goal this week. We hope everyone is able to get healthy and return next week. Let’s work together to get back on track—our goal is 95% attendance each day!

Every day at DLS matters!

Keep shining and #SparkleOn,

Mrs. Sunny Morley

Principal, Diamond Lake School

D76 CARES: At D76, the well-being of our students and families is our top priority. Understanding the critical role mental health plays in student success, we have launched D76 CARES - a comprehensive initiative aimed at improving access to quality mental health services across our community. D76 CARES stands for Community, Advocacy, Resilience, Engagement, and Support. Treatment services are initially provided free of charge to district families for up to 8 sessions.
