Hello DMS Families,
Our student Sign-In & Sign-Out procedure will be different from last year. If you are signing your child in, we ask that you come into the building to do so. Also, if you need to pick your son or daughter up early from school, we ask that you come into the building to sign them out.
Thank you for your help with this procedure.
