Drama Teacher, Mr. Merriam is casting a play
Auditions for the DKIES Winter Production, Toy of the Year, will be held on October 31 and November 1 from 1-2:30 in the Drama Room. We will be performing on December 16 during the PTO Winter Family Event. This play has 11 speaking parts and room for extra elves so anyone may audition.
You do not need to audition on both days, you may show up at any time between 1:00 - 2:30, and you may leave at any time for Parent-Teacher-Student Conferences.
Audition forms were sent home in the Wednesday Folders on October 26 (Grades 3, 4 and 5). They will also be available in D-1 and the Office. You must have a signed audition form to participate.

Thanks to everyone that donated to the Turkey Trot yesterday. At the end of the day, we collected 1,349 cans, surpassing our goal of 1,200 cans! Great job, everyone!
