Grow Together, Succeed Together
District News
Daughtry Elementary School became a pirate adventure for Talk like a Pirate Day last Friday. Students dressed as pirates and deciphered clues that would lead them around the school to the treasure! Thank you to the parent volunteers who assisted groups of students in their treasure hunt around the school.
At D.E.S. Afterschool, every day is an adventure!
