Haiti Relief UPDATE ~ Between Homeroom contributions and the student drop-off/pick-up parking lot collection effort conducted all last week, the DNHS community raised over $2250 to help support the people of Haiti! I am so proud of our student leaders! Seeing them out there in the parking lots and on the surface streets this last week - several times in the wind and rain - made me so happy to be a NIGHTHAWK! Details about the next phase of the ASB Haiti Relief Campaign will be announced later this week.

ASB Student Store Sweetheart SALE! ~ Many of the items in our student store are currently on sale... including sweatshirts, scarves, and beanies. Stay warm this winter! Show your school spirit and community pride! And save BIG BUCKS while supporting our students!!!!
