Dothan City Virtual School

Join Dothan City Schools this summer for free books, free meals, interactive activities, and opportunities to connect with school leaders right in the community. ☀️📚

Check out the full schedule below and come see us!

Dothan City Schools is bringing reading, learning, and summer fun directly into the community with the launch of the district’s brand new Backyard Summer Reading Program, the first program of its kind for DCS.

The Backyard Summer Reading Program is designed to keep students engaged throughout the summer through read-alouds, interactive games, hands-on activities, literacy enrichment, free books for students to take home, and free meals for children 18 and under. Meals are first-come, first-served.

District and school leaders will lead read-alouds for students and families, giving them the opportunity to connect with school principals and district leadership in a fun, relaxed, and family-friendly environment ahead of the 2026-2027 school year.

“This program is about creating memorable and educational experiences for our students, encouraging a love for learning, and bringing families together in a positive way throughout the summer,” said Superintendent Dr. Garrick Askew. “We are excited to take learning beyond the classroom and right into our own backyards.”

The Backyard Summer Reading Program will take place at the following locations:

• Wednesday, June 3, 2026 | 11:45 a.m. - 12:45 p.m.
Jamison Village, 705 N. Lena Street

• Wednesday, June 10, 2026 | 12:00 p.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Crawford Village, 602 S. Lena St.

• Wednesday, June 17, 2026 | 11:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
Crimson Ridge, 105 Booker St.

Dothan City Schools invites families to come out, enjoy a free meal, and join Dothan City Schools for an afternoon of reading, learning, and summer fun.

🐸 ** Science in Action!** 🧬
Our 7th-grade students stepped out of the virtual screen and into the lab today for an incredible, in-person frog dissection with Mrs. Smiley!
There is nothing quite like hands-on learning to bring biology to life. Our students did a fantastic job observing anatomy up close, asking great questions, and working like real scientists.
We love seeing our students' curiosity thrive during these in-person lab experiences! A huge thank you to Mrs. Smiley for leading such an engaging and memorable lesson.

Today, our hearts are overflowing with pride as our Seniors celebrate a massive real-world milestone. From logging into your online classrooms to pushing through every digital assignment with determination, your journey has been nothing short of inspiring. You have shown what true focus, adaptability, and self-discipline look like!

No matter where your next screen, campus, or career takes you, you will always be a valued part of our Wolfpack family. Go out, lead the pack, and show the world what you can do! ❤️

Congratulations, Lady Wolves!
