Please remember that our car rider lane closes promptly at 7:55 AM. If you drop off your student in the car rider lane and aren't in the parking lot by 7:55 AM, we will ask you to pull to the front of the building for drop off. Our supervisors need the five minutes to head into the building and prepare for instruction at 8:00 AM. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

The always popular Dundee Highlands Fannie May Candy Sale is back!

Order forms and instructions should have come home with your students last Thursday, so please check their backpacks or Friday Folders. The sale will run from 10/24 - 11/11, so please get out there and support DHES by selling those boxes of candy!

Online sales are available this year, but will still be delivered to DHES for your students to deliver in person. Click here for the online sales site. Delivery to school will be sometime between Thanksgiving break and Winter break, so please watch for that information. It will be announced most likely right after we return from Thanksgiving break.

This is one of our biggest fundraisers and provides funds for numerous programs and events throughout the school year. Fannie May candies are great for gift giving and parties, and stay fresh in the freezer for many months!

Keep an eye on Tuesday Topics and the Friday Virtual Backpack for more details to be shared as they are finalized. Good luck selling!! Thank you for supporting the DHES PTC!

As a reminder, Quarter 1 report cards are now visible to parents. Report cards are visible in your parent portal. You can find instructions on how to access parent portal here.

UPDATE: Thank you to all of the families that have participated in this opportunity! We have raised over $8,000 so far for our staff to use in school supplies! It does not stop here, continue to use your codes while you shop this holiday season in order to boost our funds!

UPDATE: We have found some incredible images from the early days here at Dundee Highlands. Next month, we will be moving into the 70's! Any images or artifacts you have are welcome!

In the month of October we are beginning our 60th Anniversary journey. Each month we will be taking a look back at the decades that Dundee Highlands has been open, starting with the 60's, and we need your help! There are so many generations of families in our community and we know that there must be some great artifacts sitting in your attics or basement. So, if you have any fun Dundee Highlands memorabilia from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, and today (This is W-ROCK DHES 99.9), please bring it in to our main office at your earliest convenience! Feel free to spread the news to neighbors and other community members that may have some items to share.

If you wish to volunteer, it is a yearly requirement to complete our volunteer registration process. Click the Volunteer link at the bottom of the page to get ahead of the game this year!
