New Student Checkout Procedure

Due to the number of disruptions caused in our classrooms, the latest you may check students out will be 2:40 pm (unless there is an emergency). This means that students may be checked out for necessary appointments during the day up until 2:40pm. After that time, students (and parents) will need to wait until the final bell to become car riders.

Leader in Me Great Happens Here

Ms. Gotshall has been at DSA for 13 years and she said her favorite part is when she gets to see that light bulb go off in a child's head. She also added that she feels blessed to be a part of such a great school surrounded by great teachers, administrators, and students. Mr. Diego has been at DSA for 1 year and he said his favorite part of his job is when he gets to pressure wash. He said his favorite thing about DSA was everything.
