SUBJECT: DCMS PTO eNews 2.21.2024 (Spring Fling, Virtual Silent Auction, 8th Grade High School Football + More!)
Principal's Desk: Highlights and Updates
Dear DCMS Families,
What I consider to be the biggest event of the year is this Friday. I hope you and your family can attend the Spring Fling on Friday at 5:00 pm in the South Soccer field. We ask that you not drop off your child(ren) but stay for the food trucks.
I kindly request that you discuss with your child the importance of refraining from bringing scented sprays (colognes and perfumes) to school. Students have been spraying themselves and others in the building causing respiratory discomfort for our students.
Supporting the silent auction and enhancing our school! Every penny raised in the silent auction directly contributes to funding exciting events for students and families, improving our school facilities, and ensuring the success of our dedicated teachers. Join us in making a positive impact and enjoying a vibrant school experience together!

Sweet Surprise Alert!
A big shoutout to the baking extraordinaire and Desert Canyon Middle School SUSD parent, Kristin Isbell Maller, Last week, she sprinkled some joy for our teachers and staff with her delectable cookies! Bravo, Kristin! Your treats were a hit and left smiles all around.
Curious to see what other mouthwatering creations Kristin has up her sleeve?
A small, but mighty update to the Teacher's Lounge / Lion's Den provided by the PTO. Thank you to our families who've donated this school year and made this upgrade possible. Gone are the days of broken - outdated - vertical blinds.
Current 8th Grade and Incoming Freshman Spring Football Opportunity
SUSD, in collaboration with our neighboring high schools, is excited to extend an invitation to current 8th-grade students and incoming freshmen to join us for the upcoming Spring Football Camp. This is a fantastic opportunity for young athletes to enhance their skills and experience the thrill of football in a supportive and engaging environment.
