DMS Students:
If you want to participate in 7th grade & JR High Sports or try out for cheerleader, you must have a physical on file.
Physical Forms will be given to student athletes by their coaches. Anyone else who is wanting to participate in sports, can come by and get a form from Mrs. Barnett's Office.
Parents should complete the health history side of the form, and let their student return to Nurse LeighAnn.
Physicals will begin February 1, and will be done here at the school free of charge.


The basketball games scheduled tonight vs. Helena and the games scheduled for Friday @ CAC have both been CANCELLED.

The Southeast Arkansas Educational Co-Op is hosting a Question of the month activity through the Gifted & Talented Department. Schools from across our co-op area compete for the top prize. Each month, a question or problem is shared with the students. They have to come up with a solution, create a product, and produce a short video explaining their solution. Students in Mr. Kyle Rowland's class have been submitting videos for this monthly contest. This month, Kaylee Coleman was selected as the 6th grade winner! Congratulations, Kaylee!
