"Small routines make a big difference!
Keep a consistent bedtime, pack backpacks (and library books!) the night before, and build a morning routine that works for your family.
These simple habits help students arrive ready to read, ready to learn, and ready to succeed. Let's make Every Day Count!

UPDATE!! DeTour Area Schools Families, we are excited for the upcoming school year and hope to see everyone at the OPEN HOUSE on September 1st! We have had several questions on what supplies will be provided by the school? Although each classroom may be a bit different depending on age and subject, DAS will be providing the basic, necessary in class materials. This includes items such as, paper, pencils, pens, class notebook, folders, highlighters, crayons, clue sticks, etc. We will not be providing items such as backpacks, water bottles, trapper keepers, gym shoes.

Congratulations to the winners of our DATA Book Report Competition!
It was wonderful to see our students showcase their reading and writing skills through their book reports. Reading and writing are important skills that grow stronger with practice, both in and out of school.
As summer approaches, we encourage all of our students to keep reading, writing, and exploring new stories. A few minutes each day can make a big difference!
Great job, readers!

DATA would like to thank our PVG for field day and all the fun activities they planned for the kids. They had a blast!




DATA would like to thank Ms.Sunderman and Drummond Island Elementary for a wonderful day of kickball, playing, picnics, and ice cream sandwiches!
