Week 29 Schedule

March 25, 2022 by Andrew Daramola

This was a great week at DVC!  Exhibition prep began in rooms across campus for Exhibition Night and we had our monthly CD, with Academic All Stars awarded. In addition, 9th grade students prepped for TED Talks in Ms. Regina’s class, 10th grade students refined their research papers in Ms. Flower and Ms. Dani’s classes, and 11th grade students completed English CAASPP testing in Hapner’s class.  While hearing back from many of the schools in the UC system, Senior students also enjoyed the addition of our new ping pong table in the Senior Common area!  

9th/10th Grade Retreat at Camp Pondo

We are thrilled to be able to bring back the spirit of the “Overnighter” tradition this year with “Camp Retreats” for our 9th and 10th grade students! These will be full-day (but not overnight) retreats at Camp Pondo, with students leaving the Da Vinci campus at 9am and returning at 9pm. The retreats will include a wide variety of recreational and team-building games and activities including a zipline, skate park, climbing wall, and more! Details of the retreats will be coming next week, but for now you can mark the dates in your calendar if you have a 9th or 10th grade student.

The DVC Camp Retreat days are Wednesday, April 20th for 10th graders and Tuesday, May 17th for 9th graders.
