Welcome to the start of another exciting school year. Students are making the transition from summer to academics very smoothly. Thank you for visiting my SchoolNotes page! Be sure and check the "notify me" feature of my SchoolNotes page to stay in touch with updates throughout the year.
The Counseling Department has been busy finalizing student schedules to ensure a smooth schoolyear. Future requests for schedule changes should be channeled to DMS Administration for approval.
DMS counselors will visit student classes periodically for guidance lessons related to topics such as bullying/harassment, cyber safety, drug awareness and prevention, and career and college investigations. We strive to improve the lives of our students both acadmically and socially.
Downing welcomes nearly sixty new students to our school. The counselors will host Newcomers' Parties by grade level this Friday during school.
The first progress report date is Friday, September 12; official school correspondence will come via second period teachers ("homeroom"). Likewise, students should also return school paperwork to their second period teacher.
Be on the lookout for a flyer regarding counseling groups offered this semester. The info flyer will come home with progress reports on the 12th.
During Open House the counselors will have materials available for parents to peruse and preview. Please stop by and introduce yourself!
I am available to help in numerous ways regarding your student. Please drop me an email, make an appt, or give me a ring as needed.
Thank you for your continued support!
