Monday Mission - Week of October 11, 2021:
Each week, we challenge students, staff, and parents to a "Monday Mission." These missions are aimed at increasing relational capacity, modeling good social skills, and keeping all members of the Dix Street family connected. Give them a try and encourage your child(ren) to take part in our "Monday Missions!"
Student, Staff, & Parent Mission: Don't Just Clap, Make Fireworks. This weeks mission is to find a unique appropriate way to show your appreciation for someone besides clapping. Clapping is the ultimate original way to show your appreciation for someone, and there is nothing wrong with that! However, showing appreciation should be intentional not just automatic. A few years ago a teacher showed me how to make fireworks with your hands. If you need a visual of this watch the press briefing above. Making fireworks is a great way to be unique and more intentional in our applause for one another.

EMERGENCY CONTACT INFORMATION
It is extremely important to have up-to-date contact information available for each student. When emergencies arise, we need to be able to contact parents/guardians. This is also the contact information that is used for school closures and district updates.
Please log in to the Infinite Campus Parent Portal to check that your contact information is current and to make any necessary changes. If you need assistance or login information for the Parent Portal, please contact the Dix Street OfficeThank You!
