Students In Class Monday

Dade County schools will be in session Feb. 18.

Due to several weather make-up days the Dade County Board of Education has decided to use the Presidents’ Day holiday as a make–up day for students.

The original 2012-13 school calendar had students receiving Presidents’ Day off but that day will now be used to make up one of the days missed because of bad weather.

All DCHS seniors and juniors and their parents/guardians are urged to attend. Parents of sophomores and freshmen are invited to attend as well. 

This meeting begins at 6 p.m. in the DCHS auditorium.
