  • Open House was a huge success with lots of students that was eager to come back to school. I heard alot of good things said about the changes made. Teachers were friendly and small classes this year.

  • This is a great school with a new Principal who is Mr. Herring and this school is safe with positive changes for the parents and students for the 09-10 school year.

  • This as a small but fantastic school. I have observed such an amazing change in DTMS due to the leadership of the new administration. The students and teachers are challenged to be their best. I hope that this continues.
