Good afternoon Discovery family. I hope that everyone had a wonderful Spring Break and is rejuvenated to finish this school year off strong. Below are the announcements for this week. There is some road construction going on West 19th Street so we need to change our traffic pattern in the mornings and afternoons for our car riders. Car riders should turn onto West 15th Street and then turn onto North Ashe Ave. between NCHS and DHS. Turn right onto West 18th Street and take the immediate right into the traffic circle at the front office. Car riders will be dropped off and picked up in this circle at the front office. Cars should then take a left out of the circle and then turn right onto North Ashe Ave at the stop sign to leave campus. Before break, students met to complete their registration forms for classes for next year. I encourage parents to talk about this with their student. There is a solar eclipse that will take place approximately between 2 and 4 tomorrow. Everyone should take care and refrain from looking at the sun during this time unless you have special glasses to watch the eclipse. Our DHS prom is coming up on Saturday April 13th. Students need to see Ms. Ward to pay for this and to get a guest form if they need one. All money is due tomorrow. Our Spring DHS BBQ is Friday April 19th. More information about this will be shared in the coming days. Senior Awards Day is on Tuesday May 7th at 9:00. The Character Awards for this past week can be found at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1op8RNLTSMw2e6FxxFRSBkFUnt6_uYoDh/view?usp=sharing. I look forward to seeing everyone back tomorrow.
