Principal’s Message
Dear Students and Caregivers,
As we move into March, how fast a school year can go is unbelievable. Currently, students are midway through the fourth week of Semester 2. As students establish routines, staff encourages them to arrive at class on time and stay engaged with their school work. In fact, now would be a great time to check in with your student to determine what they are doing in class and at school. Even though sometimes these conversations can be challenging, students thrive when parents ask questions regarding their daily school responsibilities. Schoolwork and activities can consume your student’s time, but stakeholders can identify what interventions students need for graduation by uncovering issues early.
The six-week progress report is coming soon. Do you know your student’s grade as of today? If not, there is a tool that you can access to determine your student’s progress. ParentVue is a system designed to provide up-to-date information on your student’s grade, attendance, and information regarding class assignments. This vital resource allows caregivers and teachers to collaborate and create a stronger relationship with your student. These connections will increase academic performance while decreasing attendance and classroom behavior issues. Developing solid academics and attendance habits at the high school level is essential for graduation and your student’s post-secondary careers.
Sincerely,
Greg Carradine
DDHS Principal
