The visit was filled with inspiration as Superintendent Jones and Dr. Rice read the poem aloud, inviting scholars to reflect on its meaning and share their own dreams for the future. This engaging classroom participation highlighted the importance of creativity, literacy, and self-expression. Doyle Ryder scholars were captivated by the discussion and shared their thoughtful insights, demonstrating the excellence and brilliance in our classrooms.

We strive to keep all of our students as healthy and safe as possible. One of the best ways one can do this is being fully immunized. The state requires students enrolled in school to be up to date on their childhood immunizations. Any new enrollee, 7th grader, or kindergartener not up to date will have their classes closed upon return from winter break on January 6th if required documentation is not provided. Please see attached flyer for information about our upcoming immunization clinic. If your child is not up to date please make an appointment with their doctor, the heath department, or make an appointment at our upcoming clinic to avoid class closures.
