Lil Cyclone Families,

If your child arrives at 8:00 a.m. or later, a parent or guardian must come inside to sign them in.
We have recently seen an increase in students arriving after 8:00 and being picked up before the end of the school day.

As we focus on learning and growth, every minute of instruction matters. Those minutes add up and truly impact your child's success and overall school experience.

We need your partnership.
Will you commit to helping your child:
✔️ Arrive before 8:00 a.m.
. ✔️ Remain at school until regular dismissal time

Thank you for working with us to ensure every Lil Cyclone has the best day possible!

Valentine's Day Party Information
What a special moment for our school and community! We had the incredible opportunity to open a time capsule that was buried back in the year 2000—and it was truly a walk down memory lane. Inside were items that sparked laughter, nostalgia, and wonderful conversations as we reflected on how much has changed over the past 25 years. We were thrilled to welcome members of our community, along with former students and staff, who joined us for this meaningful event. Seeing generations come together to share memories and stories made the day even more memorable.

A special thank you goes to Mr. Chris Wilson for digging up the time capsule, Mrs. Fetters for organizing the event and creating the wonderful displays, and to our Time Capsule Staff Member Group for all of their hard work behind the scenes. Thank you to everyone who attended and helped make this such a memorable celebration of our school’s history and community spirit!

We love celebrating our students at Dwight Elementary—especially our Brag Board Signers!

When teachers and staff catch students doing great things—showing kindness, working hard, helping others, or making smart choices—they write them a brag! 📝✨ Once a student earns a brag, they get to add their name to our Brag Board for everyone to see!

We are so proud of these students for making positive choices and setting a great example for others. Keep up the amazing work—your Dwight family is cheering you on! 💙🌪️🎉
