Colt Connection for February 24, 2026

Kindergarten kicked off their new Wit & Wisdom module all about Continents! They learned about Asia and Europe and some famous structures in those continents. They've read a story that takes place in each continent and continued working on their writing skills. Way to go, Kinder Colts!

Sunday, February 15 was School Resource Officer Day! 🚔💙
We are so thankful for our amazing School Resource Officer who serves Danielsville Elementary School with dedication, kindness, and heart. Our SRO does so much more than ensure safety — she builds relationships, mentors students, supports staff, and helps create the positive learning environment our Colts deserve.
Because of her presence, our students feel secure, valued, and cared for each day. She truly lives out what it means to Dream, Empower, and Succeed right alongside our #ColtsCan community.
Please join us in thanking our SRO for her service, leadership, and commitment to DES. We are grateful for you today and every day, Deputy Josie Campbell! 💙👏
