I received notice from the City of Dixon that Martin will be milling Division and Eastern on Friday and Saturday, with paving scheduled for Monday. The project is expected to be completed by Tuesday.
For those parents attending parent-teacher conferences on Friday, please use Fargo Avenue for access and avoid the Division and Eastern intersection during the construction period. Thank you!

Throughout the month of October, DPS Elementary Schools are hosting the United Way - Kids Helping Kids Coin Drive, and we need YOU to help make a difference! The class at each elementary school that collects the most money will win a sweet treat: delicious Culver's custard!

Every coin counts, and all funds raised will support organizations in our own community, including Dixon Public Schools. Let’s come together, spread the word, and get those containers filled!

REAGAN/MADISON ARRIVAL & DISMISSAL PROCEDURES

Entering Campus: All vehicles entering the campus drive should enter at Division Street and Fargo Street and proceed south along the east side of the building.

Madison Drop-Off/Pick-Up: Madison families may use the blue diagonal pull-off area near the playground for a quick five-minute drop-off or pick-up. After leaving this area, vehicles should continue through the South Lot/Staff Parking Lot, follow the drive around the west side of campus, and continue north toward Division Street and Elm Street to exit.

Madison South Lot Parking: Families who need additional time or do not use the blue pull-off area may park briefly in the South Lot and walk their student to or from the Madison playground area.

Bus Area & Traffic Flow: Please remember that buses have a designated buffer zone on each side while stopped for loading and unloading. Parent vehicles should remain outside of this area and may use the two lanes to the left of the buses to continue through the drive. Please do not stop, park, or drop off students alongside the buses. Once loading or unloading is complete, buses will merge into the inside lane to proceed down the west side of campus and exit at Division Street.

Reagan Drop-Off: Reagan students may be dropped off in the designated area along Division Street and use the sidewalk to safely enter through Door 8.

Reagan West Lot Option: Parents traveling through the campus drive should not stop on the hill to drop off students, as this blocks traffic behind you. Instead, pull into the West Lot, park briefly, and have your student use the crosswalk near the bike rack to safely enter through Door 8.

Attention DPS Families! Today is National Custodian Day! Their hard work often happens behind the scenes, but it does not go unnoticed. Whether it's keeping our school buildings clean and safe, to touch up paint jobs, tearing down/cleaning up after sporting events, or just lending a helping hand, they help create a place where everyone can feel comfortable, welcome, and ready to teach or learn. Not all of our custodians are pictured, but this day goes out to all of them.

**REMINDER** If your student will be going home with another student, we need either written or verbal permission from both sets of parents. A note will then be signed and stamped by the office and given to the bus driver. This helps to avoid unnecessary phone calls and confusion at dismissal time.
