The assistant principals have met with all students to discuss the dress code. Students and parents should be familiar with the dress code, which is contained in the DCS code of conduct. Of particular note: students should not wear athletic attire (sweatpants, wind suits, etc., with the exception of game days), crop tops, house shoes, or slides. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

September is Attendance Awareness Month, designated by the Attendance Awareness Campaign. Know the difference in truancy and chronic absenteeism. Chronic absenteeism is defined as missing two or more days per month or more than 18 days in an academic year. Students who are chronically absent are more likely to drop out. Every day, Every class period matters.

DHS pick-up and drop-off routes have changed due to the construction on the front entrance. Please note that ALL students will be dropped off and picked up at the back of the school. If you drop a student off, please remain in the LEFT lane. Car drivers and faculty/staff will use the right lane.
