DRSS is OPEN today, Friday January 24th


Dear Parents,

It has definitely been a unique weather week in the Dayton area! Please note that while frigid temperatures are still forecasted for tomorrow, we will NOT be calling for a Plan E day on Friday due to low temperatures.  While school work has continued over the last 3 days, the loss of face-to-face instructional time has been significant. For this reason, DRSS will be operating on a regular schedule for Friday, January 24.  

We have been in contact with several districts and quite a few have already made the decision to delay.  If your resident district busses and this is your child's only transportation option, we will of course, honor that delay, otherwise, please plan on being at school by 8:15 am.  Those who carpool or ride public transportation should make plans to arrive by 8:15am. 

The past couple of weeks have provided a challenge as we have attempted to balance the need for classroom instruction and concern for the safety of our students. These are not easy decisions to make and we do not take them lightly. As always, please use your own judgement when determining the safest option for your child's arrival at DRSS.  

Hoping for better weather ahead.
