And to ALL of you — a final thanks. Have a wonderful summer!

A huge THANK YOU to you, parents and caregivers, for all you have done and sacrificed this year to support your children and our school. This school year could not have worked without you. Here’s to brighter days ahead, and to coming together as a community *in person* next year! It takes a village to raise our children, and WE ARE AN AWESOME VILLAGE!

Wishing you all a wonderful and safe summer! And looking forward to reconnecting with all Duveneck Dragons back on campus on Thursday, August 12th. Until then… all the best, and be well!

Your 2020-2021 PTA Co-Presidents, Chris Hurtt and Chris Colohan

Ways to keep in touch

Just a reminder that you can still use the school directory this summer to connect with Duveneck students and families. Log in at UptoUs and click on the directory tab to look up other students. If you haven’t ever logged into UptoUs, go to the link above and click on “Forgot Password” and enter the email address you gave to the school district when you signed your child up for school. Other questions? Send an email to directory@duveneck.org.
