Preparing for 2022-2023 school year!

Posted August 26, 2022

Good afternoon DHPS families,

We hope you are having a great summer! We are very excited to get the new school year started!  Mr. Darroch and his team have worked throughout the summer to make sure everything is clean and ready to go, and our teaching staff have been working to make their rooms inviting and ready for learning.  We look forward to welcoming you back to school on Tuesday, September 6, 2022.  First day procedures and further information about our 2022-23 school year will be posted to our website later next week.

For families hoping to do some back-to-school shopping, here is a brief list to get you started. Students in all grades should have:

  • Indoor shoes
  • Lunch bag
  • Backpack
  • Reusable water bottle
  • Pencil case with pencils and erasers
  • Pencil crayons
  • One or two glue sticks
  • Primary students – “opps bag” with a change of clothes (socks, underwear, shirt, pants)

Teachers may ask for grade specific items such as markers, pens, calculators, highlighters, etc.  Any items you send, please ensure your child’s name is on each item.  When lost items are found, labelled items are very easy to return to their owner

For families new to the area, we welcome you to register with the school starting next week – Tuesday, August 30th, 1:00 to 4:00pm.  

Enjoy the last days of summer break!  We are looking forward to a great year ahead with our DHPS students and families!
