Principal Lima's Eagle News

Dear Families and Students,
This week truly flew by at DES! Our classrooms were full of energy as students continued to engage in meaningful learning experiences, building skills and making connections across all content areas. It has been wonderful to see their enthusiasm and growth as they dive deeper into their learning.
At the same time, our staff remained just as busy—collaborating, reflecting, and continuing their own professional learning. Their dedication to continuous improvement and to meeting the needs of every learner is something we are incredibly proud of.
We also appreciated the opportunity to connect with so many families during parent-teacher conferences. These conversations are such an important part of our partnership, allowing us to celebrate student successes, discuss progress, and work together to support each child moving forward. Thank you for taking the time to meet with us and for your continued support.
It was a full and productive week here at DES, and we are grateful for the strong sense of community that makes it all possible.
Be sure to check out this week’s updates below, and we hope you all have a wonderful weekend! As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Katelyn Lima, Principal (klima@drregional.org)
Mr. Kenneth Girouard, Assistant Principal (kgirouard@drregional.org)

Ms. Nune's Class
Today, Ms. Jill and Ms. Cara turned the classroom into a kitchen for a fun cooking lesson! 🍕👩🍳
Students worked together to get everything ready, followed the recipe step by step, and created their very own pizzas. From prepping ingredients to assembling their masterpieces, teamwork was on full display!
The best part? Enjoying their delicious creations at the end—YUM!!! 😋
Sports Club
Students in the ACE Sports Club played “across the river”. They had to work as a team and get across the gym using small pads without falling into the river.
