September LIM News
The Leader in Me Family Learning Squad invites you to join with your students in practicing the 7 Habits by being informed through our monthly newsletter. The Family Learning Squad is composed of students, teachers, and volunteers with the common goal of including and communicating with our DSA families. Check out the Leader in Me page or download the newsletter HERE.
Student Safety is our #1 Priority.
We are monitoring weather conditions daily using Polk County Public Schools Weather Advisory Guidelines for Physical Education and Recess. Student safety is our #1 priority. Teachers are checking weather conditions daily prior to recess, PE and outdoor activities to ensure student safety. In the event of a day where the heat advisory is above 99 degrees, teachers will have indoor activities to replace outdoor recess and PE. This also includes ESTAR recess and outdoor activities. Students always have access to water and shade while outdoors. Please help us make sure your child knows that they do not have to ask permission to use the outdoor water fountains.
Protect Your Device!
Polk County Schools provides digital devices to all students for educational use. You can protect your device by investing in a low cost insurance covering accidental damage, loss and theft. Unlimited claims, full transferability, with no deductibles and no hidden fees! Purchase online at Device Protection.
Leadership at DSA
Check out the Leader in Me page to see how we use Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits as a “Leader in Me” Lighthouse school. There will be a monthly LIM newsletter posted on the page to give ideas and inspiration of how you can practice the 7 habits at home as your student works through the habits at school.
Davenport School of the Arts was recently certified by FranklinCovey Education as being a Leader in Me Lighthouse School. DSA is one of only 650 schools worldwide to achieve this designation.
