Young Families, we have some students to celebrate! This week’s Character Counts award winners were recognized for modeling responsibility. They added their name to our character tree. Other students received a Positive Office Referral. They go above and beyond to make a positive impact on our school and others every day. Congratulations to all of our students for leading by example!

Here is the Parent Newsletter for next week! We hope you have a great weekend! https://secure.smore.com/n/rmaejk

Starting this school year, students will be banned from using personal electronic devices, including cell phones and smart watches, during school hours. This affects all DISD students (including elementary, middle, and high school levels).

Devices must be "away all day" and turned off. Students cannot use their phones during class, lunch, passing period, or any other time during the school day and while on the school grounds. This is a State of Texas-mandated policy that all school districts are required to follow. The goal is to minimize distractions and promote better focus on academics.

We’re excited to share that Mrs. Rainey, our amazing 5th-grade Science Teacher, is stepping into a new role as our Ag-Science Teacher!

All Young students will now have the opportunity to participate in a weekly Ag-Science class, which supports core instruction and builds on the hands-on experiences already happening in our Outdoor Learning Center. This new class brings real-world learning to life — and we can’t think of anyone better than Mrs. Rainey to lead the way!

We’re so proud of this new opportunity for our students and thrilled to see Mrs. Rainey bring her passion and expertise to this exciting program. 🌱🐾🌽
