Here is a shout out to Mrs. Phillip's 5th grade student leadership team member and student helper, Sarah Wilson! Mrs. Phillips said, "Sarah is so helpful every morning and jumps right in to help with a smile on her face. She has the best attitude, and I am so appreciative of her!"

Our paraprofessionals are the heart behind so much of what happens at DES. From supporting instruction and building relationships with students, to stepping in wherever they are needed, they make a difference in ways that can’t always be measured—but are always felt.
We didn’t want their appreciation to get lost in the jokes of April 1, because their impact is anything but one.
We are so thankful for our amazing paraprofessionals and the care, patience, and dedication they show every single day.
