We make over four million students take the PSAT every year. They compete for one of just 2500 scholarships.

Their odds are roughly comparable to a random teenage football player making it to the NFL.

Just think about that waste of school time, energy, and mental health.

AP Psych Lego Lab. S’s created something out of Lego and had to write detailed instructions. The next day, students had to replicate someone else’s creature using the directions. I don’t have the replications but no one was able to recreate the originals. Here are my favs!

Do you have spirit? Let’s cheer on our DV Cardinals!

Teachers NEED time, so we did our April staff meeting "take-out" style in order to give the gift of time!

Staff picked up their "take-out" boxes and can engage with this month's staff meeting content by scanning the QR codes! They also got a little treat inside their box 😉

Critical thinking is a vital life skill.

More than half of teachers are looking to leave teaching.

Let’s do the math: There are roughly 4.4 million teachers in the US.

If we lose 1 out of 4 (25%), that is 1.1 million teachers.

1.1 million teachers…
