Livestream the Kindergarten CHICKS Hatching NOW!
Every year, the kindergarten classes learn all about chickens through an embryology unit. Mrs. Preboy brings the unit to life by incubating chicken eggs, ensuring they hatch safely, and allowing students to enjoy the baby chicks for a week until they head to a local farm. The chicks were not expected to hatch until tomorrow, but we had a wonderful surprise when the first chicks hatched this evening! Click on the link to see the chicks as they hatch and to watch them at select times during their first week of life. Click Here to Watch the Chicken Livestream!

PTO Elections
Teamwork makes the dream work! Love being involved but worried about the time commitment? Good news! PTO roles can be shared with a friend or split by building—because in a small district like ours, we have to work together. Whether you’ve got a creative spark, love planning events, or just want to stay in the loop, there’s a place for YOU. Tag a friend you'd Team up with and let’s make next year amazing—for our Students, our Staff, and our Families! We've done so many amazing things thanks to awesome Parents like YOU. But here’s the truth: without someone stepping up as Secretary, our PTO will not continue. Our current President is willing to stay on for one mor year, but our board must stay full in order to maintain our tax-exempt status. If we don’t fill this role, the PTO will have to dissolve —and that means no more events, classroom support, Teacher Appreciation, or the extras that make our school special. The Secretary role can be shared with a friend or split by building—it's totally manageable, and you won’t be doing it alone. You’ll have support, guidance, and a Team that genuinely cares. If you’ve ever thought, “Someone should step up…” —maybe that someone is you. Message us, comment below, or stop us in the hall. Let’s keep the heart of our school community beating strong.

Family Field Day
You're invited to a picture-perfect day in the park filled with sunshine, laughter, and all the good stuff that makes us long for summer. We’ll have lawn games and music and plenty of space to relax and play with Friends and Family. For just $5, you can grab a hot dog, chips, and a drink — easy and tasty! And don’t worry, we’ve got your sweet tooth covered too… the KONA Ice truck will be there serving up icy treats! And this year, we’re bringing something brand new and seriously fun … introducing Tatt the Teacher — a fundraiser where the PTO provides the Teachers and the tattoos, and our favorite little(er) artists get to apply them! Come help the D91 Staff earn some serious street cred with their fancy new ink. Staff and times to be announced closer to the big day. So bring your picnic blanket, your loved ones, and your smiles — we can’t wait to see you there and share a day of fun in the sun (hopefully, this is a rain or shine event)!

Let's Grow!
Let's face it: the planet needs a little TLC. And you know what’s better than a tree hug? Planting a tree! Here’s the deal: for just $10 you can help plant a tree that will literally save the planet. That’s right! Each tree is like a tiny green superhero, fighting air pollution, providing shade, and making your Instagram photos look better. Why should you donate? Trees give us oxygen – so, you know, we can breathe. Kind of important. They help fight climate change by absorbing CO2. That's like your tree going to a yoga class and getting all zen with the environment. They provide habitats for animals. Basically, you're offering squirrels apartments. Trees create beauty and peace. (Also, they are fun to climb.) So, what are you waiting for? Give future generations something enjoy! Let’s make the world a little greener – one tree at a time. Donate now and help us plant a forest… or at least a really cool yard! [Sunday, Apr 6 at 10:20 AM] C’mon D91! We can do better than this! TEN bucks for a TREE?! That’s an absolute steal! You know someone buying a house? Got an earth-loving grad in your life? Trees make the perfect gift! Only 4 days left to grab yours and throw some shade! Let’s make it happen! Get your tree today!
