Students will dress like railroad workers, lumber workers, miners and ranchers as they bring our history alive.
Parents and the public are invited to stroll through history and learn a little more about the history of our town.
Drill coming up
Dolores school staff are preparing for a lockdown drill, in which students practice sheltering in place by staying quiet and out of sight. The school will be locked, and phones won't be answered until the drill is over. Drills usually last less than 15 minutes. In the case of a real emergency, you will receive a phone message or text from the school. Make sure that your contact information is current.
Principal Sherri Maxwell said this a good time to help your child understand why we have such drills, letting them know that we don't expect something bad to happen; we just want to be prepared. Share with them how they can help in an emergency by keeping calm and following their teacher's directions.
