DSST charter network wants to open a new high school
As you likely know, we've been advocating for a Noel High School for our Bulldogs in the Far Northeast. From turning out hundreds of community members at DPS board meetings to gathering 1,000+ signatures on a petition (thank you for signing and showing your support!) the journey to open a Noel High School continues and we aim to keep you in the loop. This article highlights this work as well as a board meeting held earlier this week where the opening of a Noel High School was discussed. We will do everything in our power to open a Noel High School that will offer the same high-quality education that we strive to provide our middle school students.

Sync Your Google Classroom with Flyer!
You may have noticed a lot of buzz around Flyer and Google Classroom Calendars leading up to and through this first week of school. Not only is Flyer a great tool for communicating with families through broadcast messages and translated two way chats, but there are additional features that make the app a one stop shop for families. One of those features is a calendar integration with Google Classroom calendars. By integrating your Google Classroom calendar ID into your corresponding Flyer groups, any assignment you post on Google Classroom will populate on the Flyer calendar for verified families on the app. When all teachers integrate their calendars, families have a complete picture of all assignments, across all classes, that their students have coming up, all in one place!
