We still have a few families who have not completed the digital paperwork on Infinite Campus. Please get that in as quickly as you can! Email Mrs. Ferrell if you need help finding the documents.
DVA Spirit Wear sales are going on now! Monday is the last day to order! The designs change constantly, so you won't see these designs again!
Check out the 7th Grade DVA Syllabus! You can also find the YA form as a link on the syllabus. :)
We have families that are trying to form carpools. If you need a carpool, please type your information into this Carpool Request Document as quickly as possible.
