A Message from Ms. O'Donnell
Dear Daniel Morgan Middle School Students and Families,
On Thursday, students will take their Reading SOL Test. Please ensure all students' have a good night sleep and are ready for testing in the morning. On May 2nd we will have our DMMS PBIS Carnival. All students can attend as long as they do not earn any ISR, OSR, or OSS consequences starting Monday.
Attention all parents of students in our Dual Language program. Join us for the Dual Language Parent Information session on April 23rd at 6:30 pm.
As a reminder, headphones, earbuds, and cell phones are to be away during the school day. Daniel Morgan will not investigate the loss of any personal devices. If a student brings these items to school, it is their responsibility to keep track of them and keep them away at all times.
Have a wonderful week and please feel free to reach out if you are in need of any assistance.
