Director's Corner
Dear Decatur Virtual Family,
It is officially crunch time. Please check your students' grades and pacing in their courses. We have about eight weeks left in the semester. That means if your student has 20 more assignments in a class they will need to submit three assignments per week in that class. The next eight weeks will go by very quickly, please check your student's work daily.

DVA Events and News
Meet Ups
DVA has meet ups each month on early release days. There will not be check ins or student sessions on these days so that our kids will be free to attend. We hope all students will take advantage of these opportunities to meet up and interact with peers and adults each month. They will all be at noon unless otherwise noted at various locations around Decatur. Please mark your calendars:
DVA Meetup: Wednesday, October 30, 12:15-1:30 p.m. at Comet Lanes Bowling, 1458 Church Street, suite E, Decatur Georgia. Join us for a little bowling! Ms. Whatley will cover the cost of the lane. Bowling shoes are $5 to rent. Meet us at 12:15 p.m. to get shoes and we will start bowling at 12:30 p.m.
