Congratulations to Dora Moore's MS Girls Basketball Team

Our girls team had a wonderful season--sadly, it came to a close in the league tournament on Saturday morning as we lost in the final four of the playoffs. We are so proud of their efforts this season and they showed incredible growth. We are acutely thankful for Ms. Kelly who took on coaching our team this year for Dora Moore Middle School's final swan-song season. Ms. Kelly poured her heart and soul out for the girls these last couple months and we are so thankful to her. 

The team will be celebrating their great season after school on Monday for a team party!


DPS Vision and Hearing Screening this week for Grades K-3, 5, and 7
 
Dear Parent/Guardian:
 
Denver Public Schools provides free vision, hearing, and dental screening for students as required by the Colorado Department of Education. Screening can help us find early problems that may make learning harder for your child.
Parents/guardians of students will be notified if the results are outside the passing range. If you want your child to receive the screening, you do not need to do anything. If you DO NOT want your student to participate in these screenings, please fill out the information attached and return the form to the school nurse or the teacher before screening starts on Tuesday.

Participation/Engagement Opportunity with the District Accountability Committee
The District Accountability Committee (DAC) is researching the experiences of families, students and staff who have been impacted by the recent school closures.
