Dealey Community

Mission:

The mission of George Bannerman Dealey is to provide an exemplary education that develops and empowers all students to become productive citizens in our global society.

“Excellence is not a single moment—it is what happens when we consistently choose to learn deeply, grow intentionally, and give our best.”

— Ms. Garrett

Dear Dealey Families,

As we head into Week 3, I want to thank our entire Dealey community for your continued partnership and support. We have had a strong start to the school year, and I am grateful for the consistency, commitment, and positive energy our students, staff, and families continue to bring each day.

📚 Progress Report #1 Reminder

This week marks the final week of the Progress Report #1 grading period. Please take time to review your child’s grades and assignments and communicate with teachers regarding any questions or concerns. Establishing strong academic habits early helps set the foundation for a successful year.

As we move forward, we remain focused on providing meaningful learning experiences that challenge our students to think critically, remain curious, and grow as globally minded learners.

Thank you for all of your support as we continue to consistently Explore Deeply and Thrive Globally! 🌎🐉💙

Here’s to another great week at George Bannerman Dealey Montessori & International Academy!

Afterschool Badge Process – Important Reminder

For the safety of our students, ALL adults working with Dealey students after school must have a district-issued badge. This includes PTA volunteers, Dealey Soccer, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Baseball, Basketball, and all other extracurricular providers.

2. Be VOLY approved — sign up on the VOLY website
   
   

3. Stop by the office to take your badge photo. Each adult will need to be issued a permanent badge that must be worn while on campus. You may coordinate with Ms. Vara to come take your picture anytime in the main office.
   
   

If you are a parent who is volunteering in one of these afterschool programs, please complete the steps above. Thank you for helping us keep Dealey safe and secure!

FAQ:

  No — only adults who are actively working with students after school through a program or organization need a badge.
