Welcome Back, DRBS Families!
We hope all of our students and families are enjoying a wonderful summer filled with fun, relaxation, and time with loved ones.
The DRBS office will be closed from June 30 through August 26. School staff will return in late August and we look forward to reconnecting with our students and families as we prepare for another exciting school year.
The first day of school for students is Monday, August 31, 2026.
We are excited to welcome both returning and new families to our school community. This year promises to be filled with opportunities for students to learn, grow, explore, and make new connections. We are also pleased to welcome new staff members and students joining our community through our new ALP and Bridges programs.
As always, there will be many exciting events and learning opportunities throughout the fall. Please be sure to check the School Calendar on our website regularly for important dates, school events, spirit days, field trips, parent information sessions, and other activities happening throughout the year.
