De Soto Teachers' Association

We believe that the most important factor in the success of every student is the teacher in the classroom who educates the "whole child".

We had an inspiring convocation last week where we were encouraged to do Whatever it Takes to reach the kids in the empty chair. We heard from Ashley Spaulding, BOE President, Emily Valdez, DTA President, and our new superintendent Dr. Corey Gibson. DTA wishes you a great year!

Thank you to everyone who made our annual Food Drive a great success!

[De Soto Teachers' Association @dta232]

Today Dr. Gibson spoke to our new teachers about the empty chair philosophy. At the center of everything we do, we need to think of the student in the empty chair. We are looking forward to working together to make this a great year for all students and staff.

The DTA Leadership team was on hand to welcome the many new teachers to our district today at the new teacher luncheon. We are looking forward to sharing how DTA is so beneficial for teachers.
