It's the FINAL 5 DAYS of the DIS Book eFair! After you browse and shop online, the books ship to our school for FREE when the fair ends and will be ready BEFORE Christmas break. For every dollar our Book eFair earns, our school receives a 20% credit!
DIS parents will need to enter their student's name and homeroom teacher (2nd period) when ordering. If you'd like to order and are a DES or DHS parent, when prompted, simply type your student's name and select "Other-DIS Library" as your teacher, and your order will be delivered to your child's school office. Thank you for your support!

Trojan Fans, our upcoming varsity football game this Friday, 10/18, has been canceled and will be considered a forfeit win for the Trojans. Our opponent, Willows High School, has too few healthy players to go forward with the game.
Because of this, our JV game will be moved to 6:30 p.m., and our homecoming ceremony will take place at 6 p.m.
