Hello Davis Drive Elementary families,

Here is the schedule for both nights:
- 5:00-5:30p in gym- Admin discussing School Improvement Goals and the PTA sharing their goals and how they support DDE.
- 5:40-6:10p Information Sessions
- ESL
- How to read your child's MClass report
- What happens in Specials?
- Success strategies to help your child achieve
- Social/Emotional Health
- 6:20p-7:00p- Classroom session
- 7:10p-7:40p- Principal/AP Roundtable
Davis Drive Middle School has organized a collection of needed items for the people of Western NC due to the catastrophic events. The flyer is below and note that the deadline is October 9th.
We know not all grades have sent out their Field Trip information, but we want to share that Wake County has a new School Cash Online payment system that automates the process for making Field Trip and Media Fine payments and will help increase efficiency and security by making payments directly into the school's bank account.
This reduces the risk of lost payments and allows teachers and office staff to focus on helping students, not on counting cash. In addition, you are automatically informed about school activities!
Teachers will send home the information on how to get into the new system and create your account.
We would love to get all families using this resource. To date we have a 30.79% adoption rate and look forward to seeing our adoption rate rise!
It is available in many languages. When you are at the School Cash Online welcome page there is a drop-down menu on the bottom left of the screen. Here is the link to set up your account: https://wcpss.schoolcashonline.com
