DMS Students have Chieftain Heart!
Twice a month, DMS students have an opportunity to sign up to participate in a Chieftain Heart lunch activity. Chieftain Heart at DMS is all about spreading positivity and school spirit. At the last DMS Chieftain Heart activity, over 60 students (6th-8th), brainstormed ideas for future Chieftain Heart activities and then participated in a "Sidewalk ART" activity where they draw and wrote positive and uplifting messages for all DMS students and staff to see. Thanks for spreading the POSITIVITY students!



DMS CHIEFTAINS serving our community! Mrs. Marrs and her DMS Honors Club are sponsoring a "Socktober" Sock Drive through the rest of the month. The purpose of this project is to help needy families stay warm during the winter months.



REMINDER: This is just a friendly reminder there will be NO SCHOOL on Monday, October 17th. Teachers and support staff will be doing professional training that day.
