Snow days look a little different for everyone, and we want to see them all! ❄️☃️📸

Whether your family is bundling up to build snowmen, sledding through the neighborhood, or staying cozy inside and avoiding the snow altogether, we’d love to see how our DPS families are enjoying these snowy days. Share your photos with us and let us see how you’re making the most of the snow!

We also want to send a huge thank you to those working in these winter conditions. Thank you for keeping our community safe during the weather. We appreciate you!

Our Superintendent’s Advisory Council at Duncan High School recently created, planned, and fully executed a Leadership Academy for outstanding middle school leaders, and it was an incredible day of learning and connection.

Students explored topics like friendship, positivity, public speaking, school spirit, social media, getting involved, and more. The day was filled with engaging activities, great snacks, meaningful conversations, and new connections. We are so proud of these student leaders for hosting a truly student led event and setting the Duncan Standard everywhere they go.

A special thank you to New Hope Baptist Church for opening their doors and providing such an amazing space for this experience. We are grateful for their partnership and the role they played in making the day a success.

Debate in Mrs. Outhier’s 8th grade ELA classes! 🗣️📚
Students put their research and writing skills into action while building confidence, teamwork, and critical thinking. They practiced respectful listening, clear communication, and defending their ideas, all skills that will serve them well far beyond the classroom.
