Culture Night 5/22
Inspire will be hosting our second annual Culture Night on May 22nd. This year's event is going to be bigger and better than last year's! At the event, there will be cultural performances and staff will host tables highlighting a variety of cultures and students will have the opportunity to engage in activities, games, and crafts. We would love the cultures reflected to represent the diverse cultural backgrounds of our community.
- If you'd like to see your culture highlighted, please fill out this form with as much detail as possible! We will use the information provided to create posters, purchase materials, and provide the staff hosting the table with information/instructions on the activity students will engage in.
- You will only be contacted if more information is needed. The more detail you can provide here, the better!
- Please complete this form by 3/22/24.
- After spring break, be on the lookout for an Amazon Wishlist to help support purchasing materials for the activities!
- Questions? Contact Alexis Fairbanks at alexis_fairbanks@dpsk12.net.
Building Improvement Projects - Updates
- Wrap around concrete (gym doors to ECE parking lot): We are pausing the project as we are seeking alternative funding sources. We are partnering with district support to inquire if there is district improvement funding available for the project.
- Playground "merry-go-round": You may have noticed the gray colored merry-go-round has been removed from the playground. The base was broken, deemed upsafe and removed by DPS facilities team. We are working with the respective DPS teams to get replacement parts for repair. It will take time for the structure to be replaced.
