Big shoutout to our School Resource & Campus Protection Officers!! Before the school year started, the DPS team was busy completing their Comprehensive School Threat Assessment Guidelines (CSTAG) training.

This program gives our officers practical yet proactive ways to look out for our school community, spot potential issues early, and keep our buildings safe.

To all our students and staff - Welcome Back!! We are excited for this new year.

Hope your 2nd week is off to a great start!!
