We loved connecting with our families this week both in-person and virtually at our Student-Led Conferences! We know that it’s hard to disrupt the routine and step away from your own responsibilities; thank you for working together in partnership for the academic success and well-being of your child. Check out some great pics from Monday’s SLCs!
- Exhibition Night: We look forward to seeing our families on campus again on Wednesday, March 27th from 5:30 – 7:00pm for Exhibition Night! Our 9th and 11th grade students will be showcasing their projects. All DVC students are expected to attend, and all families and community members are encouraged to attend! We are especially looking forward to inviting our Class of 2028 to check out their new school on this special evening.

- SmartPass Launch: We are switching to a digital pass system (no more handwritten passes and lanyards – yay!) and we are going to launch this new system schoolwide on Thursday, March 14th! The original launch date was Monday, March 11th, but we are going to allow additional time for teachers to review information with their classes before we launch.
