Our final report for 2024! May you be surrounded with peace and love this holiday season. We will anxiously await your return in 2025!
A sweet treat for some sweet acts of kindness! 🍩 Our 3rd grade Kindness Group at DEES enjoyed doughnuts as a thank-you for their hard work each morning. These students go above and beyond to help and support our younger students during arrival, and we couldn’t be prouder of their leadership and kindness! 💛

From our school family to yours!
Our 2nd graders have truly impressed us! They worked hard researching animals, crafting detailed informative essays, and creating vibrant dioramas to showcase their learning. They shared their amazing work with students, staff, and their parents or guardians all in one day. Fantastic job, 2nd grade! 🐾📚🌿✨
At Dawn Elser Elementary, our 1st graders had a wonderful time welcoming parents to school for a special project! In November, we focused on gratitude and explored what it means to be thankful. Together with their parents or guardians, students created "thankful plates," beautifully decorated to show what they're most grateful for. ❤️
Today is National Substitute Teacher Appreciation Day! We are so grateful for the subs who save our days by filling a teachers absence! If you are interested in being a sub for our district, please contact Clare at district office 618-632-6336!
This Thanksgiving we give thanks with a grateful heart for every one of our families. We have only 2 days next week before much needed time with families!
