What an amazing week at DEA, every year we get better together!

The level of family engagement is the highest we have ever had along with our student achievement thanks to YOU!

As we are wrapping up the year and preparing for the 26-27 school year we need your input on our school policies and procedures in the front of the agendas, if there is anything we can do to make things better for our families let us know. You can also take this time, if you have done so already, to prepare for the new school year by completing your Level 2 Volunteer application for more information click here https://www.polkschoolsfl.com/community/getinvolved

Thank you to everyone that has served on our School Advisory Council, we appreciate you! The minutes will be in your Saturday newsletter along with a PDF version of this newsletter if you are not able to view this on your device.

Just a reminder our summer learning program is for everyone at DEA, if you have any questions give us a call, text, or email. Student learning and safety are our biggest priorities at DEA. We have been successfully completed practicing our school procedures for the year, this week we had our final fire drill. If you have any suggestions, questions or need anything, let us know😊

Beginning Tuesday, May 26, no backpacks will be allowed at all PCPS school sites for the remainder of the current school year.

This applies to all PCPS school sites beginning Tuesday, May 26, through Thursday, May 28 — the last day of school.

Students may carry bags no larger than a small purse. Lunchboxes will still be permitted.

This is simply a precautionary measure. It is not uncommon for schools to implement such a security change during the final days of the school year, when it is no longer necessary for students to carry backpacks or large purses.

If you feel that your child needs accommodations regarding this change, please contact your school’s administration.
