Dyer Kelly Elementary School

There will be no school on Monday, October 5. It is a Non-Instructional Day. Students will return to school on Tuesday, October 6.

Enjoy the long weekend.

Beginning this week, students must be inside the cafeteria by 7:35 AM to eat breakfast.

We have too many students arriving late for breakfast, which keeps the cafeteria full when class begins at 7:45 AM. This is causing students to be late to class.

If your child eats breakfast at school, please arrive a little earlier so they have enough time to eat and get to class on time.

Thank you for helping our Dragons start their day ready to learn!

We want every Dragon at school on Wednesday, October 7!

We are having a DK Lunch Party with removable tattoos, Otter Pops, music, and dancing!

Being at school every day matters. Come to school, learn, and then let’s have some fun together at lunch!

We want to see ALL of our Dragons there!

Join us for our next School Site Council meeting on Thursday, October 15 from 4:00–5:00 PM.

School Site Council gives families and staff a voice in our school. We talk about school goals, student needs, programs, and how school funding is used to help our students.

Daycare will be provided.

We would love to have you join us and share your voice!

For the safety of our students and our school, no one should enter the secured Dyer Kelly campus after it has closed for the day. This includes climbing or jumping over gates. There is no staff supervision after hours.

If you see someone entering the secured campus after hours, please call the non-emergency number at 916-874-5115.

Thank you for helping us keep our students and campus safe.

Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from September 15–October 15. It is a time to celebrate the history, cultures, and contributions of Hispanic and Latino communities.

At Dyer-Kelly, we celebrate the many cultures and backgrounds that make our school community strong. Everyone belongs at Dyer-Kelly!

Our district offers a variety of family education and engagement opportunities including workshops, conferences, newsletters, volunteering and more! Explore the tabs, calendar and content below for details.

Want to get involved at Dyer-Kelly? We would love to have you!

Volunteers can support our students in many ways, including helping with reading, academics, classrooms, and school activities. Even a little of your time can make a difference for our Dragons.

All volunteers must complete the district’s volunteer verification process before volunteering at school.

Dear Dyer Kelly Families,

Thank you for your support and for continuing to work with us to help our Dragons be successful. We have a few important reminders for this week.

No School Monday, October 5

There is no school Monday, October 5. We will see our Dragons back at school on Tuesday, October 6.

School Breakfast Ends at 7:35 AM

We will stop serving breakfast at 7:35 AM. Too many students are arriving late for breakfast, and our cafeteria is still full when school starts at 7:45 AM. This is causing students to be late to class.

If your child eats breakfast at school, please help us by arriving a little earlier so they have time to eat and get to class on time.

We Need Every Dragon Here Wednesday!

Wednesday, October 7 is an important attendance day. Student attendance that day is used for our school enrollment count, so we want every Dragon at school!

We will also have some fun at lunch with Otter Pops, removable tattoos, music, and dancing!

i-Ready Testing & Progress Reports

We just finished our i-Ready testing in reading and math. This helps us understand what students know and where they may need more support.

Progress reports are for students who are currently working below grade-level standards. If your child receives one, it will be available in the Parent Portal beginning October 12.

Thank you again for your support, for getting your children to school, and for working with us. Strength in Numbers!
