Notes from Principal McCarthy's Desk

  • Welcome Back DDMS!!

    We are very excited about this school year! We hope that all students are ready to embark on this school year with excitement and tenacity to ensure that it is a productive and fun experience! We encourage parents to reach out to our teachers and counseling office with any questions regarding classroom expectations and materials. 

    Some new things this school year:

    We have two full-time counselors, Mrs. Lynn Comunale (students with last names A to J) and Mrs. Carrie Westgate Keisling (students with last names K to Z). 

    Breakfast is free again this year and will be served from 7:30 to 7:55 in the cafeteria. 

    Although not new - please remember that in order for a student to receive a district laptop they must have the signed permission slip returned. We do strongly suggest the laptop insurance!

    *Reminders:

    We encourage all students to work on setting up a routine that includes a well-balanced diet, enough sleep, and an opportunity to get school work completed outside the classroom!

    Let's have an awesome 24-25 school year!!
