Excusing an Absence
Absences may be excused no more than five calendar days after the student's return to school. Absences may be excused by a guardian in the myDSD app or by calling our attendance office. Once the deadline has passed, the absence will remain classified as an unexcused absence.
DHS School Dance Eligibility
Beginning this year, students must be free of any outstanding U citizenship grades from the term immediately preceding a school dance in order to purchase a ticket.
Since Homecoming takes place during first term, eligibility for Homecoming 2026 will be based on 4th term citizenship grades from the 2025-26 school year. Students with a U from 4th term must complete the approved U remediation process before ticket sales begin in order to be eligible to attend.
Please contact the Citizenship Secretary with questions regarding U remediation options.
Caregiver Class
Baby & You is a FREE workshop series designed for caregivers of children ages 0–3. Participants will learn more about child development, health, bonding, and simple ways to support a child’s growth in a warm, welcoming environment. Children (ages 0-3) are welcome to attend with their parents, and free food will be provided at every session. Families can also earn up to $500 toward a my529 education savings account!
