Support DFES
DFES PTA works hard to raise funds that provide every child at DFES with the tools they need to reach their social, emotional, and academic potential.
Art for All Grades
Through school-wide art classes, students learn to express their creativity using various mediums and materials, transforming our art room and school hallways with their colorful artwork, which is showcased to the community on Art Night.
Educator and Staff Funds
Funds for our Educators and Staff. We support our dedicated public school teachers and staff by providing funds they can use for everything from field trips to magazines, books, carpet cleaning, supplies, and more. We also support teachers’ professional development like National Board Certification.
Classroom Learning Tools
DFES PTA’s support of online educational tools is more important than ever. The PTA pays for subscriptions – available to all students – for various resources like Raz-kids, BrainPop, and Epic! Learning without tears helps children learn the basics of writing with joy – a foundation for learning and communicating in all grades!
