Correction for DHS credit acquisition summer school dates. Due to the Memorial Day holiday, the first session ends on 6/5 not 6/4 and session 2 is 6/6-6/19. We apologize for any confusion.
DHS Summer School Participants:
Students should enter the high school through the entrance located between the main high school entrance and the BEC entrances, near Mrs. Elfrink’s room.
Students who drive should park in the teacher parking lot adjacent to this entrance.
Students who walk should use the same entrance to enter the building.
Bus riders will be dropped off at this location as well.
On the first day, students should wait in the hallway near the entrance to meet their instructor for further directions.
Thank you!

Attention DHS Students and Parents:
Next week, temperatures are expected to be extremely low and potentially dangerous (in single digits with windchill temps possibly below zero). Please ensure students dress appropriately for the weather, including wearing coats, hats, and gloves.
Additionally, students should not arrive at school before 7:15 a.m., as the doors will not open until then (there is very little staff here at that time). Thank you for helping us keep everyone safe.
