Have you ever asked yourself what the DMS PTA is and what it does for our school and students?

The DMS PTA is group comprised of parents and teachers that works in partnership with the school administration to support DMS students through a variety of activities.

In order to do so, the DMS PTA raises money to support numerous programs at DMS, which have included: 
  • STEM
  • Reflections Art Contest
  • Honor Roll Celebrations
  • Dragon Tokens & Reward items including iPods, gift cards
  • PTACHC Scholarship
  • Fall Dance including DJ, chaperones
  • Faculty Fund: Reimburse teachers for classroom items
  • Shakespeare, Billy B (Cultural Arts)
  • After School Programs
  • Turkey Trot
  • Fun Day
This year's plans are to continue many of these fun and fulfilling programs to enhance the overall school experience of our students.
