DMA's Pallet Gardens
We are creating our own pallet gardens at DMA. The pallets are being painted and soon we will add the dirt and seeds. Classes will be in charge of planting, tending, and harvesting their pallet gardens.
Breakfast with the Principal
Students enjoyed breakfast with the principal for completing their summer learning calendars for 2011. Look for new summer learning activities as we embark on Jimmy Kim’s remote summer reading program for summer 2012. Students who complete this program will have the opportunity to partake in some yummy breakfast once again along with other cool prizes!
