Another great morning on Day 3 of our new carline system! Thank you to our students, families, and staff for your patience and teamwork as we continue to work as team to make sure campus car traffic runs as smoothly as possibly. Together, we are fostering a positive and caring culture, ensuring an efficient and safe experience for everyone on our campuses.
Lots going on this morning at NDUE, from A.R. winners to Lighthouse Leaders of the Month to our ROCKING NDMS Griffin band, it was a "jingling" good time had by all! We would like to extend a big thank you to NDMS for allowing these students to come play for us! #LEADlikeaGriffin
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we’ve implemented our new car drop-off system! By Day 2, we’re already seeing improved efficiency in car line times, and we truly appreciate your cooperation during this transition. Your support not only streamlines the process but also significantly enhances student safety from the parking lot to the school entrance.

North DeSoto Families,
We want to extend our appreciation to each of you for your patience and cooperation as we rolled out our new car drop-off and pick-up system this morning. We understand that changes to routine can present challenges, and we are grateful for your support as we work to create a more efficient and safer process for all our students.
Your understanding and willingness to follow the new procedures are instrumental in helping us improve everyone’s experience. While we know there may have been some bumps along the way, we are committed to fine-tuning the system to ensure it runs smoothly in the coming days.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact your student’s campus. We truly appreciate your partnership as we work together to provide the best possible experience for our students.
Thank you again for your patience and cooperation!
