September to the first grade in 2001. Since then, my two oldest have become DFES alumnae
Word of the Month and my last little one is now in the first grade. Over the years I have served on PTO
Responsibility and have helped out in the classroom and/or around the school as needed. I am
very proud of our school and feel it is an honor to be able to serve it in any way
possible. I have previously served on SIC for 2 terms and am asking for your support
once again this year. I feel that not only is our school successful because of the
wonderful teachers and administrators, but also because we have parents that
genuinely care and contribute to our success. In my capacity as a SIC member I will
continue to share with parents relevant information that I learn as well as attempt to
be a voice for parents by sharing views/questions that they express to me at SIC
meetings. I thank you in advance for your support and look forward to being able to
continue serving our school in the years to come.
