Our 8th graders went to camp this week, making many memories before moving across the street to DHS in the fall. We had an amazing time, and we owe our sincerest appreciation to the 15 camp counselors, all DCS graduates, for making that possible. These young men and women donated their time to serve as our leaders, and they were truly the perfect role models. Joining this year were Emma Helmstadter, Patrick Lefere, Sara Marek, Kaiden Chinavare, Maddie Doody, Skyle Messer, Mariah Costelli, Lia Parry, Megan Horkey, Betsy Nieman, Anto Ritsema, Liam Bressler, Trevor Schroeder, TJ Salley, and Caden Bellaire. Ms. Iocoangeli, Mr. Atkinson, Mr. Hall, Ms. Kurek, Ms. Capling, Mr. H, Ms. Spiegel, and Mr. Ost also joined the experience this year. You probably won't see this group around the community at all this weekend. They will be sleeping. The camp experience is just another example of why Dundee kids and our community are simply the best.🤍💙🤍💙

It was Jurassic Park week this week in 8th Grade Science. As a kick off, students became paleontologists with a fossil dig. They did a great job. We then "visited" the Petrified Forest National Park on a Virtual Field Trip. A lot of testing was completed and we rounded out the week by watching Jurassic Park.

Happy Teacher Appreciation Day to all of the educators out there, especially ours at DMS! We are so fortunate to have such hard working and dedicated professionals teaching our kids. It isn't nearly enough, but we're so happy to spoil our staff with little treats this week. Stay tuned on Thursday and Friday for posts of some local businesses jumping in on the fun! Dundee is a great place!💙🤍
