Candria Gray 12 th Grade Future Plans: Study Pre-Dental at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette Go Gators!

Greetings Gator Family, Attendance is very important, and we miss our young Gators when they are not at school. 1 missed day is a huge amount of classroom time missed. We will be sending out letters to parents/guardians of students that have 7 or more unexcused absences as of today (March 3, 2025). 10 unexcused absences equals truancy, repeating of the current grade, and possibly losing your seat at DCS. If you receive a letter, and have any questions, please feel free to call Coach Clark. 318-878-0433 ext 1113
