Estimada comunidad de DMHS,
Este miércoles 25 de noviembre es medio día. Los estudiantes asistirán a los períodos 5, 6 y 7 en este día; tendrán la asistencia asumida en estos períodos. El Sr. Kravitz ha anunciado que este miércoles también es un Día de Bienestar para nuestro personal y estudiantes. Como tal, los estudiantes no participarán en el aprendizaje de material nuevo ese día, ni revisarán material anterior ni realizarán ningún trabajo de clase ese día. Los estudiantes simplemente deben registrarse con sus respectivos maestros dentro de los primeros 10 minutos de los períodos 5, 6 y 7, ya que todavía es un día escolar. Nuestros estudiantes y personal han trabajado excepcionalmente duro durante el aprendizaje virtual, y este día sirve como un respiro de su arduo trabajo y sirve como un día para enfocarnos en nuestro bienestar. La administración de DMHS desea desear a nuestro personal, padres, guardianes y estudiantes un muy feliz Día de Acción de Gracias.
Atentamente,
Sr. Benjamin Suro
Director de Escuela secundaria Dwight Morrow / Academias en Englewood

Dear DMHS Community,
This Wednesday, November 25th, is a half day. Students will attend periods 5, 6 and 7 on this day; thus, they will have attendance taken on these periods. Mr. Kravitz has announced that this Wednesday is also a Wellness Day for our staff and students. As such, students will not engage in learning new material that day, reviewing older material or getting any class work that day. Students simply need to check-in with their respective teachers within the first 10 minutes of periods 5, 6 and 7, as it is still a school day. Our students and staff have worked exceptionally hard during virtual learning, and this day serves as a reprieve from their hard work and serves as a day to focus on our wellbeing. The DMHS Administration would like to wish our staff, parents, guardians and students a very Happy Thanksgiving. Thank you.
