It’s commencement weekend, and it won’t be long before our dolphins are making their post high school decisions! This group got the chance to visit @UNC a few weeks ago with the Step at UNC program. Could we have some future Tarheels in these photos? ���🤍🐏 #GDTBATH

The results are in, & the conclusion is clear: Mrs. Smith is the DRMS TOY! 🏆 This incredible 6th Grade Science teacher doesn’t just teach the facts, she sparks curiosity & lights the path of discovery for every student. We’re beyond proud to honor the impact she makes daily! ✨
