Happy Spring Break, Dardenne Knights! #WeAreDES

Great things happen when students talk, listen, and learn from one another. Student conversations build understanding, strengthen relationships, and create a positive learning environment for all. #WeAreDES




When you have lots of leaves to clean up and end up filling more than 15 bags, you have to make a little fun out of it. Hard work and a few laughs make it all worth it!


Congratulations to our technology teacher, Mrs. Sweeso, for earning the Triple E Impact Award for March. #WeAreDES

Our 1st graders were hard at work coding with Code-A-Pillars! They used critical thinking and problem-solving skills to make sure their Code-A-Pillar stopped in just the right spot. Great learning in action!
