Dragons Den 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.

📆 Weekly Calendar

A day to celebrate the hero in all of us—Cape Up, Dragons!

Heroes lead with truth, integrity, and strong character.

Celebrating the everyday heroes who support and nourish our school community!

✨ “Heroes are made by the path they choose, not the powers they are graced with.” – Iron Man

At Dealey, we believe that being a hero is not about superpowers—it’s about the choices we make every day. Our students show us what it means to lead with courage, kindness, and integrity, both inside and outside the classroom.

As we celebrate a week full of excitement and community, we encourage all of our students to rise to the moment and show their very best.

🦸‍♂️ Cape Up, Dragons! 🦸‍♀️

Because heroes aren’t born—they are made through their actions.

Where Dragons Thrive, Blazing We Rise! 🔥🐉

🐉 Important Reminders

✔️ Registration for 2026–2027 School Year

Registration is currently open. Families are encouraged to complete registration as soon as possible to secure enrollment for next school year.

✔️ Intent Not to Return Form

We currently have hundreds of students on our waitlist for the 2026–2027 school year. Families who do not plan to return next school year are asked to complete the Intent Not to Return Form by April 20, 2026.

This helps us open seats for students waiting to join our Dealey community.

📌 Please complete the form here:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfXEyH5JI6SxYG4bljxCGa6POIUg87ZfRrBi0tZNGcDpLkwsw/viewform?usp=header

Please complete one form for each student in grades PK4–7th who will NOT be returning for the 2026–2027 school year.

If your child IS returning, you do not need to complete the form.

Good afternoon Dealey families,

I want to provide a brief update regarding recent reports of insect bites following outdoor activities.

Our campus completed a full exterior pest control treatment on March 18. Due to seasonal conditions, insect activity (including chiggers) can increase during this time of year. In response to recent concerns, we have already requested a follow-up inspection and additional treatment and are continuing to monitor the situation closely.

For this week only, we are taking the following precautions:

• Temporarily limiting student contact with grassy and garden areas, particularly for students who have not had the opportunity to apply preventative measures prior to arrival
• Continuing grounds monitoring and maintenance
• Supporting students through the nurse as needed

We also want families to know that parents may make individual decisions for their child. If you prefer, you may still allow your child to participate in outdoor grassy areas this week at your own discretion.

A few important reminders:

• Parents may apply insect repellent to their own child before school or by checking in through the front office
• School staff and volunteers do not apply repellents or other substances to students
• Students should not bring or apply powders or sprays at school

As always, outdoor learning and play are an important part of the student experience, and we will continue to take reasonable steps to ensure students remain safe and comfortable.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support.

Warm regards,

The 8th grade graduation, awards, and clapout will be happening on Wednesday, May 27th, 2026. The awards will start at 9:30 AM, but we recommend getting to school early to check in for better parking, seating, etc. Here is the RSVP form: http://bit.ly/dealeygrad26 Each student is guaranteed 2 guest seats. As free spots open up, we will periodically give them out on a lottery basis to those who have expressed interest.
