Count Day is on Wednesday, October 2nd!
As students begin to think about plans after high school, the newly updated Pathfinder can help them find more options than just college. Get started at Pathfinder.MiTalent.org.
Also, students and families are encouraged to view the "Michigan Hot 50 Job Outlook through 2032," which includes the anticipated job growth, the average wage and the education requirements for each occupation. Students can explore in-demand careers and the credentials they'll need.
Last night, a car struck a utility pole and resulted in power outages near and around the high school. We have been informed all power has been restored. However, it has also caused our phone system to go down. We are working to resolve this issue, but we may not be able to call out or receive phone calls to our buildings and at the bus garage today. We will continue to keep you updated and let you know when our phone system has been fixed.
Parent Teacher Conferences
Phone Update: Phone lines have been successfully restored across all buildings in our district. Wishing everyone a wonderful day!

Attention, Chieftain Fans! A few reminders of our Rules and Regulations at Chris Taylor Alumni Field: no backpacks, no outside food, no outside drinks, and all elementary and DMS students MUST be accompanied by an adult. We will be offering $1 Student Tickets to ALL Dowagiac students. Student tickets must be purchased at their school during school hours. If they are not purchased during school hours, tickets at the gate will be full price. During the 3rd quarter we will be shutting down the ticket booths and not allowing re-entry into the game. Let’s Go Chieftains!!!
