Week 21 Schedule

by

DVC’s first-ever Neurodiversity Celebration Week was a success! It was a week dedicated to uplifting the neurodivergent community by amplifying their voices, debunking myths, and highlighting the strengths associated with disabilities. A huge thank you to the students who bravely shared their stories, organized engaging and informative events, and to the staff who created safe spaces for meaningful discussions during advisory lessons. 

Also this week, 11th graders in Computer Science hosted a Da Vinci Mobile App Showcase and 12th graders in Marketing and Journalism participated in The Situation Room Experience at the Reagan Library. Senior Activities Club and Senior Committee collaborated on an important event and reminder to the seniors called “Donut Panic,” where they distributed donuts to seniors and reminded them that things are going to turn out ok during this stressful time of figuring out next steps after high school.

No School on Friday, 2/7 & CLD Day on Monday, 2/10: Friendly reminder that there is no school on Friday, 2/7 due to Professional Development. On Monday, 2/10, there is a Community Learning Day (CLD). All students are expected to complete THIS CLD SURVEY indicating if they are planning to be on-campus or off-campus on Monday, 2/10. ALL students (whether they are on campus or at home) must fill out this Community Learning Day Attendance Form to receive attendance credit. As a reminder, these forms can only be accessed by students through their davincischools account.
