Hello DeKeyser families, October was a banner month for us at DeKeyser! Thank you to all of our families, friends, and businesses who donated to our Fun Run, making it one of the most successful fundraisers in the ten years I have been at our school! The money from the fundraiser goes to our Parent Teacher Communication Group (PTCG). Our group dedicates the money to items and activities that directly impact our students and families. Seeing student faces when I was working on the roof was priceless! They were so excited, it made facing my fear of heights totally worth it!
With gratitude,
Mary Beth Merlo
Our Mission: The DeKeyser community provides a safe, learning environment while encouraging academic and personal success through high expectations. Our Theme: DeKeyser Elementary School's theme is "Adventures never end!"
All children have the right to a rigorous, high-quality education which meets their individual needs. UCS will respect, encourage and empower each and every student to acquire the necessary knowledge, skills and attitudes to be successful, contributing members of a diverse community and global society.
We are committed to exemplary teaching and learning in order for our students to be prepared for success in the 21st Century. We will achieve this commitment by engaging the entire community to focus on each child's achievement, with the expectation that every student will pursue some type of post-high school educational endeavor.
