📚🐯 Yesterday, our 1st and 2nd graders had a very special visitor! Dr. Morris from First District RESA and Let’s Read, Georgia! joined us as part of the Fall 2025 Reading Campaign: “Ready, Set, Read!” 🎉

She modeled high-impact interactive read-alouds with the book “Hey, Little Ant.” This experience not only gave our students the chance to enjoy a read-aloud that was rich, responsive, and rigorous, but it also served as an incredible professional learning opportunity for our teachers. 💡👩‍🏫

We’re so thankful to Dr. Morris, First District RESA, and Let’s Read, Georgia! for sparking excitement and inspiring a love of reading at DLR! 💙

Safety Reminder!

School safety remains our highest priority. Families, we need your partnership in reminding and educating your children about the seriousness of making threats. What may seem like an innocent prank, or simply something said out of anger or frustration, can carry very serious consequences. Every threat, whether real or fake, demands an immediate law enforcement response, disrupts learning, and can result in life-changing legal prosecution.

We take EVERY threat seriously and will continue working closely with the St. Marys Police Department, Kingsland Police Department, and the Camden County Sheriff’s Office to ensure swift and decisive responses to all threats.

The safety of our students and staff will always be our top priority. If you have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Protecting with Purpose,

Chief Kizzi Knight
