Dorena School Family

  February 27th, 2026 Have a wonderful weekend!  Announcements: This is the last week of our February attendance challenge! It has been another hard month as our students have continued to be hit with illness, but we want to honor the class that had the best attendance for the month with a technology party!  Friday will be our PBIS Staff vs Students basketball game! All 4th-8th grade students have the opportunity to play against our Dorena staff for a fun basketball game with an upbeat halftime show performed by our K-3rd graders!

Announcements: We are moving our Family Title Night to THURSDAY Feb 26th 5:30-7pm!
