Thank you for your continued support and generosity — we can’t wait to celebrate with our school community!

Our Pre-K students are building a strong foundation for learning through exploration, play, and discovery. We are proud to recognize the importance of early childhood education and the incredible impact it has on a child’s future success.
A huge thank you to our Pre-K teachers, Mrs. Eubank, Ms. Bateson, and the DLRES staff for the love, care, and dedication you pour into our youngest learners each day.

Mrs. Tipton's and Ms. Mills' ELA classes finished up their reading of Dear Primos and Dear Dragon with a wonderful pen pal exchange! Our students wrote friendly letters to one another, practicing common and proper nouns and making sure their tricky commas were in all the right places. They celebrated their hard work and shared their letters over pumpkin cookies and juice. What a sweet way to end the module! 📝🍪
