It's finally here: the staff play!! Come join us in the theatre Tuesday night at 7:00 for a short comedy from the Beginning Drama class, "How to Succeed in High School Without Really Trying," followed by a hilarious staff play about relationship break ups, "It's not You, It's Me." Tickets are $7 at the door and all proceeds benefit scholarships for seniors! At the end of the evening, you'll see which teacher gets a pie in the face!!
If
you are interested in dance team or PAC dance, there will be an informational
meeting on Wednesday, May 24 at lunch in the dance studio. See you there! (May 22, 23 & 24)
The
DRHS Lunch choir,
our own a cappella choir, is performing concerts on Friday, May 26, at 3 pm and
7 pm. It will be in our theatre and is FREE, although donations will be
accepted. Come hear our amazing a cappella group!
Have
you ever wanted to pie a teacher in the face? Well now's your chance. Drama club is holding a fundraiser in the
counselor’s hallway every day this week, at lunch, giving you the opportunity
to give money towards the teacher you want to see get pied in the face. The teacher with the most amount of money in
their jar at the end of the week will be pied in the face, at the end of the
Staff Play on Tuesday, May 23rd at 7 pm in the Theatre. This will be your last chance to send Mrs.
Hausauer off with a pie or your first chance to welcome Mr. Bell as our new
principal with a pie to the face.
The speech and debate team is holding a fundraiser at Lamppost pizza on
Monday the 22nd. Come in any time after

send Ryan Regier and Jennifer Whitbeck to the national tournament in June. Thank you for your support, good luck at
nationals!
Attention

outs and learn more information for next season. If you have any question
please see Mr. Guzman in 119 or Mr. Magrum in room 107. See you at the

Hello
Mustangs,
As
the weather begins to get warmer, it is imperative that students continue to
follow the Washoe County School District (WSCD) dress code. The WCSD
dress code policy may be found in the student planner, in the display in front
of Student Services, and on our DRHS website.
So
be sure shorts and dresses are at least mid-length (roughly to the bottom of
your fingertips when you stand up straight), and keep those hats and hoodies
off while on campus, etc.
If
you have any questions, please feel free to contact Student Services.
The
staff at Damonte Ranch is committed to working with you to ensure all students
have a successful spring semester in the classroom, and we can do so by
limiting dress code violation distractions.
Thank
you for your commitment to your education. Go mustangs!
Hi
everyone! As we get to the end of the school year, we are no longer
checking out Library books or renewing them. If you’re in need of
something to read, though, we have some free books and you are welcome to them!
Please,
please make sure all your LIBRARY books are turned in by May 30th.
Only Library books are due May 30th, not textbooks. After that
date, books are marked lost and parents get bills. Ain’t nobody got time
for that! Thanks so much!
Hundreds
of days, thousands of photos, millions of memories. Don’t miss out! Purchase your 2016-2017
yearbook now!
They
are selling out fast and prices increase again soon so don’t wait. You can purchase by going to yearbookforever.com
or going to the bookkeepers office to pay.
Willa Cather once said, “Most of the basic material a
writer works with is acquired before the age of fifteen.” That means
writers, that you have a lot to work with so consider submitting your work to
the Hoof Notes literary magazine. The deadline is fast approaching…it’s
about two weeks away! Submit work to your English classroom teacher, to
Ms. Servilican in room 214. We are still looking for some excellent work
from students and teachers alike. Hear that teachers, you are welcome to
submit something too!
The final exam schedule has been updated. Final exams will be Wednesday June 7th, Thursday
June 8th and Friday June 9th.
