Course Requests for the 2014 School
Year
Parents and Students!
Please be aware that we began distributing course requests for the 2014
school year to all students. Course requests will be available for
pick up in front of the Guidance office during both lunches. Students who
did not pick up course requests today may stop by the Guidance office at
lunch to pick it up. We encourage parents and students to review course
requests for accuracy as opportunities for schedule changes in the Fall may
be extremely limited. If a change is necessary, please feel free to contact
Mrs. Moffat in Guidance. The deadline for students or parents to make
changes is Friday, May 10, 2013. Course requests will be locked after that
point, so we may begin the scheduling process. Thanks so much in advance for
your cooperation. |

Parent/Athlete Meeting for Fall Sports
The DHS athletic program will be hosting a mandatory parent/athlete
meeting for all students interested in playing a fall sport
(bowling, cross-country, football, golf, swimming and volleyball).
This meeting will take place at the DHS auditorium off of Hill Ave
on the evening of Tuesday, May 21st at 7:00pm. This first half of
the meeting will give details concerning eligibility and paperwork
requirements. All paperwork needed by the athletic office will be
passed out at this time. Parents will be able to complete and hand
in most paperwork at the meeting. This should speed up the process
and assure that all athletes are cleared to participate prior to the
1st day of summer workout and/or fall practices. In addition, the
athletic director will briefly discuss the FHSAA’s eligibility
policy as well as Volusia County’s Pass to Participate and Pay to
Play Policies.
During the 2nd half of the meeting, athletes and parents will break
away with their particular sport to meet with the coach in other
areas of the campus. The coaches will explain when/where practices
will take place, hand out tentative game schedules, go over team
expectations and rules, talk about equipment needs for practices,
etc.
The athletic director and coaches look forward to meeting with all
fall sports athletes and their parents here at Deland High School on
Tuesday, May 21st in auditorium at 7pm. See you there! |

Let’s Work Together to Keep Our Students Safe
Our students are being injured by vehicles at alarming rates. Since school
opened this year, nine students have been struck and injured by vehicles
throughout the county. Please do your part to keep our students safe. Watch
out for pedestrians and bicycles. Expect children to be walking or riding
bikes to and from school or their assigned bus stop between the hours of 6
am – 9 am and 1 pm – 5 pm. Obey the speed limits and stay alert. Urge your
friends and neighbors to use caution when driving before and after school.
We must change this trend and work together to keep our students safe.
