We had a great spirit week at DVC, including celebrations of our All-Star Award winners and the newly inducted members of the National Honor Society! And now we turn our attention to our biggest night of the semester – Exhibition Night! We invite all families, friends, and community members to join us on Thursday, 11/16 from 5:30 – 7:00pm as our students showcase their projects. All DVC students are required to attend; students in grades 10 & 12 will have their projects on display.
This week is a three-day week for students! There is no school on Thursday, 11/9 (Professional Development) and Friday, 11/10 (Veterans Day).
Shelter-in-Place Drill: The Da Vinci high schools located at the 201 N. Douglas location (including DVC) will be participating in a Shelter-in-Place Drill on Wednesday, November 8th. Shelter-in-Place drills are designed to educate students and staff and to provide practice opportunities for what to initially do in the event of an on-campus or nearby emergency that requires a lockdown.
Senior Portraits: This is the final opportunity for the Class of 2024 to take their senior portraits with our photographer, Stacee Lianna. If you haven’t taken your photo yet, please sign up so that we can include you in the yearbook. If you’d like a retake, please also sign up for this final opportunity: https://book.usesession.com/s/izqHdlV23
