Good afternoon Discovery family. I hope that all of you are enjoying the beautiful weather we are having this weekend. Below are the announcements for the upcoming week.
Monday is National Custodians Day! Please let Mr. Audrey know how much we appreciate everything he does for our school.
Student drivers are reminded that they should not park in the lot across from Newton-Conover High School.
On October 10th and 11th, we will have guests on our campus who will be working to put together a professional commercial highlighting all the wonderful things we have going on at DHS. I will be asking some of you to speak about what makes Discovery special.
On Wednesday October 11th 3:00-5:00, we will be hosting a Meet and Greet that will provide parents an opportunity to come in and meet with your teachers. By Friday October 6th, teachers will be sending out an overview video to your parents providing a synopsis of the class. The Meet and Greet will simply be a drop in event to provide parents an opportunity to ask any questions they may have after watching the video.
The National Honor Society will be hosting a blood drive on Friday October 13th. Please see Mr. Scronce for more information about this.
Underclassmen Make up Pictures are on Monday October 16th.

Good afternoon Discovery family. I hope that all of you are having a wonderful weekend. Below are the announcements for the upcoming week.
The Outdoors Club will have a meeting tomorrow morning at 7:20 in the cafeteria. Anyone interested in participating in this club is encouraged to attend.
Science Olympiad is hosting a Krispy Kreme doughnut fundraiser on Wednesday and Thursday, September 27th and 28th! Students will have the opportunity to either buy doughnuts directly or buy bogo cards that you can redeem at Krispy Kreme locations to get a free dozen doughnuts with every dozen bought (redeemable up to 10 times). Participation is greatly encouraged as Science Olympiad needs all the funding we can get! Students who may be interested in buying doughnuts should fill out the Google Form (
https://forms.gle/ToE5XfwwgETWanw76) and indicate what they would like to purchase. If you are planning on buying doughnuts directly on Wednesday or Thursday, remember to bring money with you!
There is a teacher workday on Friday and thus there is no school for students on this date. Enjoy your long weekend.
