As a school, we have selected ONE Wildly Important Goal that we believe will encompass all that we do to help students prepare for their transition to adulthood. We believe that if every student, parent and teacher are all working toward this WILDLY important goal, that we will achieve it.

The Golden Hawk Wildly Important Goal: 100% of DSHS students will EARN all of their credits during the 23/24 school year.

What does that require from teachers, students and parents?

STUDENTS: Attend school each day, ready to learn with a charged laptop. Participate in class and turn in all assignments. Check StudentVUE regularly, and talk to your teachers if you notice your grades slipping.

PARENTS: Ensure that your child does the above and check ParentVue regularly. Talk with your child if their grades starts to slip and encourage dialogue with the teacher.

TEACHERS: Ensure that all students have access to engaging lessons each and every day. Post grades regularly. Give meaningful feedback to students on their assignments. Communicate with students and families.

Can you imagine the incredible outcomes we would have if we all committed to these things? I will continue to keep you updated on our goals and our collective commitment to your child.

Have an incredible rest of your week!
