Report Cards are in the mail!

December 22, 2020 by Erin D'Souza

Good evening, DVC Family,

Just a quick note to let you know that report cards were mailed on Monday afternoon. Due to post office delays, I know that the report cards may take a bit longer to arrive at your homes this season.

The letter that was included in the mailer is here. If there is anything that is of urgent need during this break, please reach out to me (edsouza@davincischools.org or 310-350-7192) and I will do my best to assist you.

We look forward to welcoming our students back at 9:30am on Monday, January 11th!

Sincerely,

Erin
