Back to School Guide

DCPD

Back to school right around the corner and it is time to get those school supplies, new shoes, and some great new threads for the kids to sport. We have some helpful information to help you make the grade.

We know parents have lots of questions when it comes to sending the kiddos out the door and we are here to help! We have put together a guide to help you find helpful information to get you and the kids ready for a great school year. Get your #2 pencils ready and take a look below.
