Dillon and Dye Elementaries participate In “Trip Around the World” Title I event

Families at Dillon and Dye Elementaries participated in the “Trip Around the World” Title I event during parent-teacher conferences on March 5th.  Students were able to explore science and social studies using books, maps, crafts, and games.  They identified the continents, followed directions on a floor map, and studied the differences between countries, states, cities, and neighborhoods.  The highlight of the night was the build-your-own brownie sundae to represent the layers of the earth!

Help Recycle Markers

The Dye Art room is recycling dried up markers. A collection box is located outside the Art room. If you have any old useless markers, any kind, any color, simply drop them in the box. Last year we recycled over 4,000 markers. Let’s see what we can do this year.

Dye Elementary Recycles Paper

Please help support our program and put your used newspapers, magazines and school papers into our paper retriever outside in our parking lot. We have a 5th grade club that helps with this effort, it also helps the students understand the benefits of recycling.
