Dolvin Diary
September 5, 2024
Principal's Message
Good afternoon Dolvin families,
I hope that everyone had a nice long weekend! I think it is safe to say that here at school, we are settled into our routines, have established positive relationships and are focusing on meeting our students' needs so that they all learn to their full potential. The 4.5 Weeks Progress Report will be available in the parent portal starting 9/13. The grading requirements per 9 weeks are listed below. Because it is the first 4.5 weeks of the school year, students may have less than half of these requirements at this time and some grade levels may not yet have grades in science or social studies. Not to worry, by the 9 Week Progress Report, which will be visible in the portal on 10/18, all students should have at least the minimum number of grades as listed below.
Thank you,
Andy Stein
Principal

Ready for School
Please send your child to school with everything they need to have a successful day! Lunches, water bottles, homework, snacks, devices, etc., should arrive with your student in the morning to avoid interruption of instructional time. If a child arrives in the cafeteria without a lunch, they will be allowed to purchase one. Thank you and we appreciate your understanding.
