We look forward to our special celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month on Thursday, 10/3 put on by our Latino Student Union (LSU)! A reminder that there is no school on Friday, 10/4, and student-led conferences begin on Monday, 10/7.
Student-Led Conferences: Parents & guardians are expected to attend their student’s conference during the week of Monday, 10/7. Students will be dismissed early (at 1:50pm) on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday to accommodate the conferences. You can also find grade-level information and sign ups at the following links:

Community Learning Days: Our first CLD Day is coming up on Friday, October 11th! Last Friday, all students were shown this video explaining CLD options and given a new student survey to fill out. The survey asks students whether they plan to have their learning experience on campus or off campus. If students select the off-campus option, a CLD Off-Campus Permission Slip must be signed by parent/guardian and turned in to the Advisory teacher no later than Thursday, 10/3. Students were provided a copy of this permission slip during Advisory on Friday. Please ask your student what they selected for their CLD Day. The survey will be open until 4pm on Monday, September 30th and students can log into their davincischools google account and make changes (or complete it for the first time if they haven’t yet done so).
School Photos: DVC Picture Day photos are now ready for review! Each student has their own individual gallery and families can choose the photo they’d like for the yearbook. The deadline to choose photos for the yearbook is next Friday, September 27th. You can access your individual gallery here: https://my.photoday.com/s/staceelianna/davincischools
