Unenrollment Process
By:  Greg Kottcamp, Assistant Principal

Are you switching districts or going to a private school for the 2023-2024 school year?
​
If you have decided to have your child/ren attend another school district or a private school for the 2023-2024 please email our registrar Jennifer Lillibridge and let her know your plans. This is how we start the unenrollment process and it will allow us to offer that D’Evelyn spot to a family on the waitlist. 

Junior High Play - The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon

​After Prom Info

After Prom is a parent-sponsored/supervised event with games, food, drink, a rock wall, and swimming which provides a fun and safe setting for our students.  It also serves as a goodbye party for our Seniors.  You can attend After Prom if you do not attend Prom.  Students should bring their suits and there will be a place to store their suits and other items.

Funding for After Prom comes from parent donations, ticket sales, and a significant contribution from the D’Evelyn Education Foundation.  We need many volunteers and donations to ensure its success. Sign up to volunteer or donate needed items.  We are currently looking for people to shadow a team leader this year to take on the planning for the next prom.  This is an excellent opportunity to get involved with other D’Evelyn Families and participate in a long-standing D’Evelyn tradition.  Please contact Wendi Graper @ [email protected] if you’re interested in a rewarding position on the After Prom Committee.

Dress Code Reminder
Picture
By:  Greg Kottcamp, Assistant Principal
​

As we get further into the spring season and warmer weather, we would like to remind parents and students about our dress code expectations. When families choose to send their students to D'Evelyn they are expected to follow the school policies. If every family makes sure that their child/ren is/are following the dress code guidelines below, it will help us maintain our high behavior expectations. Please take the time to review the dress code with your kids. The most common violations have been students wearing hats (hoods of their hoodies), shirts exposing the midriff, and shorts that don’t fully extend to cover the mid-thigh. We need your help in making sure that the dress code expectations are met. Thank you for having those hard conversations with your kids.    ​
