Last night was a wonderful evening for DES! We had the pleasure of hosting the School Committee during their "Roadshow," where we showcased the outstanding work that our teachers and staff accomplish daily through our Spotlight Presentation. Additionally, we shared our School Improvement Plan for 2025-2027 and provided an update on the new Elementary Report Cards. We are also proud to celebrate that one of our students received an award for her exceptional ACCESS score, highlighting her hard work and achievement. In addition, Mr. Badger was recognized with an award for his dedication and contributions. A heartfelt thank you to all the staff and students who presented, as well as to the parents and caregivers who attended and supported the event. #WeAreDR #EIS #DT2030

Today, the DRRHS Class of 2025 went on the annual Grad Walk through their respective feeder schools. This important tradition reinforces our PK-12+ commitment as a #WeAreDR community and demonstrates to all future Falcons the goal of graduating as a future-ready member of this community. The symbolism ignites warm memories for the PK-8 staff who empowered our seniors and shaped their lives. #DT2030 #EIS
