Kindergarten through second grades visited the local Charlie Brown's Tree Farm. The students enjoyed face painting, storytelling, and picked out a tree for their classroom. Thanks to our school board for allowing them to go, and to the tree farm for making great memories.
Dexter Attendance Center celebrated Veterans Day on November 13, 2019. Veterans were asked to attend for recognition and a Thanksgiving meal was served in the cafeteria afterward. Kindergarten & 1st grades sang "Yankee Doodle" while the 2nd & 3rd grades sang "Grand Ole Flag" and "God Bless America." The 5th and 6th grade classes picked poems to read for the veterans.Thanks to all Dexter parents, community, and staff for a great program.
Dexter Attendance Center, along with nine other area schools participated in the MCTM Junior High Math Contest at Southwest MS Community College, Friday, March 3, 2023. The contest included any 7th and 8th graders that passed the preliminary test given by the teachers at each local school, the two students that scored the highest went on to Southwest for the competition. The winners for 7th grade were: Kindin Johnson, taking 1st place, and Madison Prine, taking 2nd place. These two students have secured a place in the state competition to be held on the first of April to compete at the state level.
Dexter Booster club and staff showed its appreciation to Mrs. Deloris Breland for all of her hard work and dedication to Dexter Elementary. February is school board appreciation month so the booster club and staff gave Mrs. Breland a card and a gift to show how much she is appreciated. She is a dedicated member of the Dexter community as well as the school. Mrs. Breland not only serves on the school board but she also donates her time to Dexter by participating in events and donates monetary amounts to make these possible. We would also like to say thanks to all of our school board members and our superintendent who endeavor to make the schools in Walthall County a better place for our students.
Dexter Attendance Center participated in the food drive to replenish the local food pantry. The students were asked to bring nonperishable items to donate. This teaches students about giving back to their community and helping others in need. Hunger and poverty are things that students need to learn about and how they can help others. Thanks to all students and parents who donated.
