"With Dixon pride, they lead the way, doing what's right every single day. They think ahead, they think anew, finding the best for students too! Supportive, kind, a teammate true, flexible, strong in all they do. With open hearts and minds that shine - the Spirit of DPS 170, by design! Way to go, Mrs. Shippert and Mr. Masters!

Parent Survey: We are interested in obtaining information from our parents/guardians related to the PreK-5th grade Holiday Classroom Parties. This survey only takes a few minutes and will help buildings create plans for future Holiday Classroom Parties. Computers will be available in buildings on Thursday & Friday during conferences to complete the survey. The survey will close at 5 pm on Wednesday, October 15th.
