We have started track and field for our grades 4 – 7 students. A notice was sent home regarding track t-shirts. Please note that the deadline to order is on Wednesday, April 6th. NO late orders can be accepted as we need to factor in time for shipping.

April 4 – 8 will be vision week for all Delta Schools. Students will be discovering features of the Delta School District’s Vision 2030 through morning announcements. Please check out our DG Twitter Page (@DGElem) for more about vision week and other events at our school.
Lost and Found
The trolley that is placed in the front of the office has some fragile lost and found items that we were unable to place outside the gym prior to spring break. If you recognize any of the items, please stop by the office to pick up your items.
