8th grade science students have been learning about adaptive traits, with camo being one of them. They were tasked with camouflaging butterflies around the room in the hopes that the predator coming in to hunt wouldn't find them! Only about half of the butterflies survived 🦋
Due to continuing high winds and snow packed roads, David City Public Schools will be closed today, Wednesday, March 5. Because we're unsure at what point the highways will improve, staff will not report.
David City Public Schools will be having a 2-Hour Late Start tomorrow, Wednesday, March 5. We hope that the extra time will enable plows to salt roads and ensure that roads are clear after a night of high winds. We will continue to track the situation and evaluate the situation again before 8:00 am. We're sorry for any inconvenience.
Addison Kuhlman was selected David City Rotary Student of the Week. Great job Addison !!!
Reminder: DCPS will dismiss students at 1:30 today. We've canceled all after-school practices and meetings. Our goal is to have students heading home by 1:45. We will continue to monitor the weather as we make decisions about tomorrow.
Congratulations to Paxton, Oliva, & Lorelai - the February 28th Scouts of the Week!!
