We have begun the school year and in only three days of school we have executed a fire drill, reviewed policies and procedures and all students and staff have had their picture taken. We also had the class of 2015 out on the athletic field to take their yearbook photo.
Chromebooks:
Reminder to parents that on Tuesday night at 6:30 in the auditorium there will be a meeting to review the chromebook initiative. We hope you will be able to attend. They will be distributed to those students who have submitted the necessary paperwork starting with the senior class on September 9th, Juniors on the 10th, Sophomores on the 11th and Freshmen on the 15th.
Parents should consider the insurance option and information was included in the first day packet of information that was given to every student at DHS on Tuesday.

Attendance Change
Students who are absent (unexcused) from any class more than six times in a quarterly marking period will be assigned an administrative grade of 50 for that marking period as a maximum grade in all subjects. Teachers may assign grades LOWER than 50 in cases involving excessive absences and/or flagrant failures to do required work. Students receiving an administrative failing grade in any of the first three quarters may recover their earned grade by having no unexcused absences during the quarter immediately following the quarter in which the administrative failing grade was assigned. It is the parent/student’s responsibility to notify the teacher of his/her intent to recover the earned grade and have the administrative failure removed.
