Dear Parents and Guardians
We are excited to announce that Dorothy Dodds will once again be participating in the "fill the dome" food drive, with the help of our 4th grade student leaders! Between Monday Nov 13th and Friday Nov 17th, students are encouraged to bring as many non-perishable food items as possible. These items will be donated to the community wide food drive which helps stock the great plains food bank.
Dodd’s Family Movie & Motion Night
Pull up a chair, a blanket, or pillow as Dodd’s PTAC presents Disney Elemental

Both gyms will be open; one for the movie and one for motion to allow students to expel extra energy.

A parent/guardian must accompany their child for the entire event.
Snacks available for purchase (cash only) but feel free to bring your own picnic meal along with your seating option.
