#PhoenixFam 10th grade English students recently celebrated their newly published books and six word art memoirs at the Book Launch. The art is currently on display in our makerspace and books can be purchased at bit.ly/dtsoiauthors.
As a reminder, our CURRENT students DO NOT have to re-enroll. Only students who will be NEW TO DTSOI have to enroll.
Here's an example:
Phineas Phoenix is an 8th grade student at DTSOI this year, and his little sister, Phoebe Phoenix, is a 5th grader at Shaw Elementary.
Phineas DOES NOT have to enroll for the 2023-2024 school year to stay at DTSOI.
Phoebe HAS TO COMPLETE THE WHOLE ENROLLMENT PROCESS to go to DTSOI for the 2023-2024 school year.
*AND if their cousin, Pherb Phoenix, who went to DTSOI two years ago but currently goes to Har-Ber this year wants to come back to DTSOI next year, he will have to complete the whole enrollment process to come back to DTSOI for the 2023-2024 school year.
It's almost go time, #PhoenixFam! Enrollment opens TOMORROW at 10AM.
