Hello DIS Families,
PARCC Testing
PARCC testing begins next week.
- April 27, 28 and 29- 5th grade PARCC Testing
- April 30, May 1 & 4- 4th grade PARCC Testing
- May 5, 6 & 7- 3rd grade PARCC Testing
Similar to the first round of testing, you will receive an email with details relevant to your student a few days prior to testing with some additional information and reminders.
Save the Date: 6th Grade Parent Meeting
On June 4th from 7-8pm in the DMS Cafeteria, Mrs. Medina and Mr. Miller will be hosting an informational session for parents of rising sixth grade students. There will be a two-hour daytime orientation, tour and information session for students in late August. During our parent orientation you will meet the DMS Principal Mr. Miller, Assistant Principal Mrs. Medina, Guidance Counselors Mrs. Stipa and Mr. DeNick and our School Nurse Mrs. NiCastro. The goal will be to welcome you to our learning community, share our goals and philosophy, advise you of our policies, answer your questions, allay your apprehensions, and just generally ease your family’s transition to the exciting middle school years.
