DES received a generous donation of $500 from Its All About Kids to purchase books for our Library and our book machine. We are so appreciative of their generosity!

Dalhart Elementary School is looking for a fun, energetic paraprofessional to work in Music class with Ms. Mari. Our students love Music class and Mari needs some assistance as we move into Music program months. If you are interested, please contact Dr. Elaine Hyer at DES and apply on the Dalhart website under educational aide.

DES parents - we are off to a fabulous start! Thank you for getting your littles to school on time. Our ADA period has changed to 8:30 am this year. That means that if your child arrives past 8:30 am they will be counted absent for the day. If you have any questions please call the DES front office.

DES welcomed our staff back to school on Monday. On Tuesday night we had our annual staff family potluck dinner. The food and fellowship were wonderful!!!

Join our team, be a Substitute!!
