MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

I will be entering my 4th year as Principal at Dorcas Elementary School. The three years I have spent at DES have been great!! I am proud to say we are a 2008 Title One Reading Distinguished School. This is largely due to the students and the staff at Dorcas. Our PTO is a huge part of our school success. They help fund many of our activities. The PTO continues to need support so please take time to help our school by getting involved with the PTO.
