01/20/25, 1:03 PM

Dear DM Families,

YIKES, IT IS COLD!

As we were writing this, we learned that DPS has called a two hour delay for tomorrow, Tuesday, January 21st. 

2-Hour Delay Details for Dora Moore:

  • Doors will open at 10:55am. School 'starts' at 11:00am. Teachers will take attendance at 11:10am. 
  • Morning school buses will run on a delayed schedule and begin pick-ups at bus stops two hours later than the normal pick-up time. (Example: If your morning school bus pick-up time is 7:55 a.m., your bus will pick up at 9:55 a.m.).
  • Discovery Link will open at 7:30am for all pre-registered families (no drop-ins!). Discovery Link will be communicating directly with registered families today.
  • We will stick to our normal lunch schedule--keep in mind our first lunch of the day (ECE & kindergarten) begins at 11:30am. However, a grab-n-go breakfast will be available to students that would like it. 
  • Dismissal, after school clubs, and bus routes home will be at their normal, regular scheduled times.

Please read the other important dates and details below for this week as well. 

Stay warm!

Sincerely,

Mr. Janson & Mrs. Watson
