✨Teacher Impact Story ✨
Throughout the school year, we’ll be sharing powerful stories submitted by DPS staff and community members about teachers who made a lasting difference in their lives.

These reflections highlight the moments, relationships, and everyday actions that shape who we are. Our teachers are mentors, encouragers, and life-changers — and their impact reaches far beyond the classroom.

We look forward to celebrating the educators who helped set the Duncan Standard and continue to guide the next generation with heart and purpose. ❤️📚

Stay tuned for more stories of gratitude and inspiration.

Our 6th grade Honors ELA students in Mrs. Outhier’s classes have been busy combining research and creativity for a meaningful purpose. ✍️🎨

Students created research projects and artwork that will be shared with our neighbors at Chisholm Trail Assisted Living Center. This experience gave students the opportunity to learn, create, and connect with others in our community.

🎄✨ Dress Like an Elf Day at DHS! ✨🎄

Our halls were full of holiday cheer today, and Principal Elroy led the fun as our very own “Elf on the Shelf!”

She magically appeared in a new spot between each class period, and students who found her earned extra lunchtime as a reward.

What a joyful way to bring smiles, laughter, and a little holiday magic to our campus! ❤️💚

Duncan Band Boosters are hosting their 13th Annual Mattress Fundraiser on Saturday, January 31st, from 10am-5pm. This may sound odd, but it is the best way to buy a new mattress because the prices can’t be beaten, the brands are the same as retail stores, and every purchase benefits the Band Boosters.

Please help to spread the word!
