We know it's still summer, but the fall season is right around the corner! We will be having our preseason meeting for all DHS Fall Sports on Monday July 27th to ensure the two weeks leading up to preseason can be fully enjoyed with summer fun. (and so we also fall within the MPA's requirement for hands off for 2 full weeks leading up to the fall sports season). This will also help get practice schedules and important information into your hands earlier.
Also, our sign up system is ready to go, and an exciting change is that you can select all sports your child will be participating in this year rather than just this current season. Please complete this as soon as possible to help our coaches know who to expect on day one of practices (Aug. 17th). You can go to schools.snap.app/dirigo to register your child. (Middle school registration is not open yet, but will be soon!)

A note regarding Graduation tickets:
As always, seniors will receive their tickets when they receive their Caps & Gowns, the Friday before Graduation week. This will take place on June 5th.
Each senior will receive 8 bleacher and 7 floor tickets (a total of 15 tickets each). In the event additional tickets are able be released for any reason, every effort will be made to ensure they are distributed equally among the graduating students.
All tickets are given directly to the graduating seniors. The choice of who to share their tickets with is entirely theirs.
Any unneeded tickets should be returned to Dianna Dority, Graduation Coordinator, ASAP. She will help reallocate any returned tickets to students seeking additional tickets.
Tickets are required for entry, and must be presented at the door.
