DVC students who are a part of The Pack (DVC’s yearbook team) have been hard at work to make a yearbook to mark this unique year. All seniors will be able to get the book for free and do not have to order the book. For families of 9th, 10th, and 11th grade students, the cost is $23 per book. You can order a book by going to www.YearbookOrderCenter.com and entering 17703 as our school code.

For families of seniors: If you would like purchase space in the book and design something to celebrate your graduate, please do so on or before Saturday, April 24th. You can find all the information about pricing and how to do it on this revised flyer. The deadline for submissions is Saturday, April 24th.

We had a fantastic first week back from spring break and were thrilled to have over 200 students join us on campus this week, reconnecting with their teachers and each other! Here’s a slideshow with the highlights of the week: DVC Return to Campus Video. We had seniors on campus decorating their caps, students working at workstations and getting academic support, and students photographing for the Vans Custom Culture Contest!

For Week 31, we are excited to welcome our 10th grade students on campus for their grade-level activity on Wednesday morning, 4/21. All students participating in on-campus activities are invited to take a free “grab & go” lunch and are encouraged to bring a water bottle with them. If you are interested in joining us on campus next week, please let me know (edsouza@davincischools.org) or (310) 350-7192. You can also have your student let their teacher know, and they can go over the options. As a refresher, the video explaining the new schedule is here and this website is a great resource for all your on-campus and distance learning questions.

Our athletics programs also ramping up and I encourage you to check out and bookmark our athletics website (https://www.davincischools.org/athletics/) and email our interim athletic director Tori Grafeman if you have any questions about our sports program.

Wishing you a safe, enjoyable weekend,

Erin
