Progress Reports!

Wait! Don't Panic......

We did not forget Progress Reports. We've just updated our Progress forms, so you'll be receiving your child's report SOON!

Keep 'em Moving!

Parents,

We believe that your child should receive education in every way possible. Therefore, we've implemented 'extra' specials to your child's schedule. Not only will they receive Speech, Occupational Therapy, and Adaptive P.E, but we now get to soak our brains in a world of music notes with our new music teacher, Ms. Swint, who is also experienced in music therapy.  We will also get our fingers wet and colorful with exciting activities from our awesome art teacher, Ms. Nalley. So get ready because we're going to "Keep 'em Moving" while we continue to 'Dive into Learning!' 

We Need You!

Parents,

PTA is EXPLODING with many exciting things this year! We need your participation. Please join for only $3.50/per person so that we'll be recognized as having 100% participation along with other incentives that we'll receive throughout the school year.

Thank You!

Parents,

We can not thank you enough for all of the items you've sent in for our students. There's nothing like an 'overflow' and we truly thank you for your support. I'll keep you posted on items that may start to run low.

YOU'RE AWESOME!

Welcome!

Well, it's another exciting school year and we are back in full effect! Let me first introduce myself.  My name is  Stephen Culver and I'm new to Dowell, but have been in the Haven Program for 6 years. I tell ya'.....the month of August has been a BLAST! The kids are off to a GREAT start. I already see improvement from the first day of school....and that's our goal: "Acceleration." Words can not express the support that I've received here so far. I'm excited to be here and so are the kids. We're looking forward to an 'awesome' year: "Learning, while having fun!"
