TEACHER APPRECIATION: Teacher Appreciation Week this year falls on May 6-10. This year, we are sponsoring monthly luncheons for our amazing teachers and staff.
- We are accepting donations through April 26. To contribute, you can send in cash in an envelope marked DMS PTA, or you can Venmo @dmspta (look for a picture of the dolphin). PLEASE put your child’s name & homeroom on the envelope or Venmo notes. For every $5 donated, we will send home a card with your child to give to their teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week. For example, $20 = 4 cards. Thank you for all your support as always! Any questions, please email demasimiddlepta@gmail.com

ATTENTION CAST OF “INTO THE WOODS JR.”
We have been invited to perform for the mayor and town council on Wednesday May 8th at
7 PM . If you are interested in performing with us, please attend practices on Thursday, May
2nd and Tuesday, May 7th in the music room. You can take the late bus home. Please
reach out to Mrs. Corradino with any questions.

PARENTS:
If you notice that a fine has popped up on Genesis that means your student has a book
that is overdue by 30 days or more. You will see the grades blocked on Genesis along with a
fine. That fine is a placeholder until the book is returned. Paper notices have been sent out
once a month since the beginning of the school year. If they have been lost or damaged, the
library book will need to be paid for or replaced. Feel free to email Ms. Schaffer with
questions.

GENESIS/EMERGENCY CARDS: Please take a minute to check that all information in Genesis is
correct (i.e. names, address, email address and phone numbers) and matches the information
on the emergency card. This information is used to generate all correspondence (school
messages) and is needed to make sure you are receiving electronic information and securing
release of your child to the proper parent/guardian.

NURSES NOTE: Students should carry their own water bottle and can use the reusable waterstations throughout the school.

*ATTENTION PARENTS*: If you will be dropping off any item(s) for your students to pick up
during the course of the day (i.e. sports equipment, instruments, lunches, classwork, etc.),
please make sure it is labeled with your student’s name, grade and hall, slips are available in
the hallway. Place the labeled item(s) in the basket for the appropriate hall and we will make
sure the student receives. In order to ensure the safety of our students, we are minimizing
access in the building.
