DRYDEN COMMUNITY SCHOOLS

Perfect Week Challenge - Can your child attend all 5 days this week? Celebrate small wins - they add up!

Attendance myth - Attendance doesn't matter until middle or high school. Fact: Good habits start early. Regular attendance in kindergarten and 1st grade predict reading success by 3rd grade and graduation later on.

Michigan law requires schools to provide families with information about the importance of safe firearm storage. This notification is part of a statewide effort to promote student safety and comply with MCL 28.435 (Public Act 17 of 2023).

These images explain safe storage practices and provide guidance to help ensure firearms are secured properly, reducing the risk of accidental injury.

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. Ensuring the safety of our students and community is a shared responsibility.

Super U! Challenge is a high-energy, game show-style assembly that teaches students important values like respect, kindness, and responsibility through fun, interactive challenges. Today, we were thrilled to welcome Chris to our school to lead the assembly and bring these powerful messages to life with music, props, and lots of student participation. It was a fun and memorable way to support our character education and anti-bullying efforts! @TMobile @drydencardinals #FN5GL #Sweepstakes #proudcardinal

In Dryden High School Health and PE classes, small skill student presentations took place this week. #proudcardinal students enjoyed learning new skills from their peer presentations. Students learned how to speak some Norwegian and Spanish, throw a football, set a volleyball, shoot a free throw, make cloud dough, origami, lift dumbbells, and crochet. Students were extremely vocal about how much fun it was to learn new skills. #proudcardinal @TMobile @drydencardinals #FN5GL #Sweepstakes
