To celebrate Kindness Week, DeWitt Elementary’s young artists created large wooden initials for the school grounds. The letters “D.E.S” were hand-painted by students in art class with the help of several parents and community volunteers. Students also created a canvas which will be permanently installed inside the building.
“One way to show kindness is to collaborate,” said art teacher Joli Holzhauer. “When we work together, we can create an amazing gift for our school. Students also gain a sense of accomplishment when they see their artwork on display in front of the building.”
The following people deserve special thanks: Dana Horton for spending many hours with the young artists, Jared Holzhauer for building and transporting the letters, and all the volunteers who worked with students during the project.

1ST GRADE and 4TH GRADE:
We would like to send out a friendly reminder that there is only one more week left to order your child's DES Musical T-Shirt. This year's show promises to be like none other, and it would be wonderful if we could all come together to have a unified look during our performance at DES.
In addition, we will be accepting donations towards buying shirts for those who are not able to ensure every student receives one. Your generosity would be greatly appreciated.
T-Shirts are $15 each. When sending money, please include your child's name and homeroom teacher.
Thank you!

Please join her Monday, Feb. 26th at 6:00pm. If you have any questions you may contact Mrs. Stephanie at
scody@dewittdragons.net
