WEATHER CLOSURE: Based on the current conditions, it’s not likely that Tuesday’s historic snowfall will melt away before temperatures drop again tonight, which could lead to unsafe road conditions for our buses Thursday morning. Out of an abundance of caution, the DCSS will close schools Thursday with plans to reopen Friday.

WEATHER INFO: The district is monitoring an approaching cold front that has the potential to bring snow and ice to our area next week. We will provide updates on our official channels - website, mobile app, SMS and Rooms -- if there are any changes to school operations.

Parents we need your support! Please come out and partner with teachers to improve student achievement.
