Celebrating Our First Two Weeks!
We have had a wonderful first two weeks of school! Our students have been learning what it means to be safe, respectful, responsible, and ready to learn throughout Doherty. Knowing and meeting expectations in the classroom, hallways, cafeteria, playground, and other shared spaces helps create a positive environment where every student can learn and thrive. We encourage families and caregivers to talk with their students about these expectations at home and discuss how they can continue to demonstrate safe, respectful, responsible, and ready-to-learn behaviors throughout the school day. Thank you to our students, staff, and families for helping us begin the year so successfully!
Friday Principal Challenge: Show Appreciation
Today’s Principal Challenge is all about appreciation! Every student is challenged to thank someone who has taken the time and made the effort to help them during these first two weeks of school. It could be a teacher, staff member, classmate, family member, or anyone else who has helped make the beginning of the school year special. A simple “thank you” can make a big difference!

The Doherty Color Run registration is OPEN!
Now that the first day of school is behind us, don’t forget to register for this year’s Color Run! This is the PTO’s BIGGEST fundraiser of the year and allows us to fund programming for the school year. Plus, it’s a bunch of fun!
The Color Run is coming Friday, October 9! Students will walk or run through the school's field course while washable, non-toxic color powder is tossed at stations along the way.
IMPORTANT: Register your student on FundHub and share their fundraising page with family and friends. Students who raise at least $75 by September 18 will earn a FREE Blizzard coupon, redeemable on any monthly Blizzard Day during the school year!
