Our fifth graders had a wonderful time at the Northeast Water Festival! Students enjoyed hands-on learning about storm surge, the water cycle, pollution, and the importance of water conservation. It was a fun-filled day of learning! 💙🧡

Gator Nation, We are incredibly sad to announce that next week's homecoming bonfire has been canceled. We were so looking forward to gathering around the fire with all of you at the swamp's 25th anniversary, but due to the total lack of rain and the active burn ban, it is simply unsafe and illegal to light an open flame. While we are deeply disappointed to miss out on this tradition, keeping everyone safe has to be our absolute priority. We are so sorry for the inconvenience and the sudden change of plans. Thank you so much for your understanding, and we hope to see you all very soon under better conditions! With regret, DCS Student Council

Friday, October 23rd 3:30 PM Bring a car, truck, or float—or simply come out and support the celebration. Businesses are welcome to decorate a vehicle, highlight their services, bring employees, and show their Gator pride. It’s a fun way to connect with the community and get some free exposure for your business while helping us celebrate this special milestone. Our local businesses play an important role in the Delhi community, and we’d be excited to have you represented in the parade. Please share this post with local businesses that may want to join us!
