💚🦅 The countdown to a new school year is on, Eagles! 🦅💚
One of my favorite days of the year is getting to see the excitement on our students' faces as they find out who their teacher will be—and that day is almost here!
Drop in during one of our 2026-2027 Registration Days:
📅 Tuesday, July 21
📅 Wednesday, July 22
📅 Thursday, July 23
🕣 8:30 AM – 2:30 PM
📍 Des Arc Elementary Cafeteria
During registration, families will complete all required paperwork (should take about 15 minutes...a few more if you have multiple children to register). After paperwork is complete, the student will receive a special welcome card revealing who their teacher will be for the upcoming school year! 🎉✏️
🍎 Incoming Kindergarten Families: Most students completed registration packets during screener days, but you'll still need to stop by to pick up your child's welcome card and find out who their teacher will be!
📢 Please remember: We will not be posting class lists this year. The only way to receive your child's teacher assignment is by coming in during one of the registration days.
Our staff has been working hard behind the scenes to prepare for another incredible year, and we are so excited to welcome everyone back to Des Arc Elementary! We can't wait to see our hallways filled with smiling faces and watch another year of learning take flight.
See you soon, Eagles! 💚🤍

We’re gearing up for ATLAS Summative Testing next week, and we’re excited to see our students show what they’ve learned! Students in grades 7–10 will test Monday through Thursday on the following schedule:
• Monday – Writing
• Tuesday – Math
• Wednesday – Science
• Thursday – Reading
Friday we will be on a regular bell schedule for students in grades 7-10 and we will be using that day for make-up testing. We encourage all students to come each day well-rested, confident, and ready to do their best. A good night’s sleep and a healthy breakfast can go a long way in helping students stay focused and perform at their highest level.
After testing each day, students will have the chance to unwind and have some fun with games and Fun Day activities as a celebration of their hard work!
Please note: Juniors who are not enrolled in AP courses are not required to attend school next week.
Thank you for your continued support—we appreciate all you do to help our students succeed!
