...Tis the season. DES wishes everyone a happy and healthy holiday season.










Ho ho ho, no grumpy faces allowed! The DES students just scored a free book for the holidays! Every Christmas, they get to pick a book from the library as their festive treat. This year marks the 10th time the DES library has played Santa with its book giveaway. By diving into different stories, kids can explore new people, places, and events that are way outside their usual bubble. Reading is like a magic potion for students—it sparks their imagination and boosts their brainpower! When kids realize how awesome reading is, they can unleash their inner superheroes!






These 5th grade students have joined the IXL 50 Point Club for this semester. Way-to-Go!


Whoever said math is a snooze-fest clearly hasn't met Mrs. Morphew! Her math classes are rolling dice and racking up points in Farkle while mastering the art of multiplying by 10s, 100s, and 1000s. A big shoutout to Mrs. Morphew for turning math into a party!







Yesterday, DES threw a Christmas bash that could make Santa jealous! Mrs. Morphew's class is having a blast with the pop-up masks they crafted. Have a jolly good time, everyone!
HO! HO! HO!

Mrs. Collins came around with the Prize Wagon this morning to celebrate students who have shown growth in iReady and Star! Congratulations, students, and Thank you to Mrs. Collins and Mrs. Faulkenberry for always celebrating growth with our students!

Check it out! These amazing kiddos are our school's reading rock stars! Each one has scored 75 points or more in the AR program and is crushing their growth goals in IReady. A big shoutout to Dr. Walker’s office for hooking them up with free ice skating tickets in Broken Bow! Let’s hear it for Dr. Walker and a huge cheer of “LEOPARD PRIDE” for our fantastic students. You all are awesome!
