This week, we are kicking off our staff appreciation weeks for this school year by celebrating a special group of staff who provide so much support to our teachers in the classroom! Thank you to all of our Instructional Assistants for what you do each day as you work Together for Kids

Congratulations to DCHS Senior Noah Basham for being named a National Merit Scholarship Semifinalist!
The National Merit Scholarship Program is a nonprofit organization that annually awards scholarships to high school seniors. This year, program officials selected around 16,000 semifinalists out of more than 1.2 million students from across 20,000 high schools based on preliminary SAT scores.
To be considered for a Merit Scholarship award, semifinalists must fulfill several requirements to advance to the Finalist level of the competition. About 95 percent of the semifinalists are expected to attain finalist standing, with approximately half earning the merit scholar title.
