=**UPCOMING**= The Annual DTA Tea is scheduled for May 9th at Lincoln School. We look forward to the sad and heroic goodbyes to our retirees, and celebrating the success of graduating senior children of DTA members that are moving forward with their education after High School. The refreshments are always top notch. Enjoy!

In order to communicate better with all teachers, DTA president Ken Trapp is visiting all school sites for a pizza **lunch**. He will be at DHS South Campus on May 7th, DHS North Campus on the 11th, and then at Wilson on May 14th. This is a time for you to hear Ken and also to give input to DTA leadership.
