Having fun AND learning in Pre-Kindergarten!
NDLE First graders working hard during their EL Skills Block in Mrs. Odom's Class. Future leaders in the making!
REMINDER: There will be no face-to-face instruction for students Thursday or Friday. Students will participate in remote learning only. Due to the likelihood of power outages in the area during the storm, no “new” learning will be introduced. Students should use this time to catch up on missing assignments and study for upcoming tests. Stay safe! #DeSotoStrong
NDLE and all other DPSB Facilities CLOSED Thursday.....
After consulting with the National Weather Service regional office, Emergency Preparedness officials, and district and school leaders, we are making the following adjustments to our normal schedule as a result of the severe weather expected from Hurricane Laura:
All district offices and school buildings will be closed to students and staff on Thursday, August 27th. Thursday will be a Virtual Only learning day for all students PK-12.
Due to the likelihood that many homes across our district might experience power outages, NO "new learning" will be introduced on Thursday. Students should use this time to catch up on missing assignments and study for upcoming tests.
Friday will be a Virtual Only day for all students PK-12, staff will report as usual, unless otherwise notified.
Stay safe Griffin Family. We'll see you Monday, August 31, 2020.
