Champion Learning: Develop, Educate, and INSPIRE!

DHS Senior Update 12-12-25

Dear Class of 2026 and families, 
 
Happy Friday! We hope everyone enjoyed their day off today. You have just one week of classes left before winter break! 
 
As the weather gets colder, it’s important for us to remind everyone that students may not park in the visitor lot. Seniors are permitted to park in their assigned space OR in any unassigned spot in the student parking lot! Students parking in the visitor lot will be required to move their car and could lose school driving privileges.
 
FRIDAY, December 19th is the deadline for senior pictures, ads, and quotes! Don’t wait until the last minute, submit your picture, ad, and quote today!
 
Information for yearbook and ad purchasing can be found here: Yearbook and School Photos - Dexter High School.
 
The link for students to submit their senior quote is on the Class of 2026 Canvas page under the Yearbook Information Module.
Have a great weekend and go Dreads!
