Science Club and YANA Club teamed up after school and had a fun time making Christmas ornaments together! 🎄
Driver Families,
You are invited to attend the Driver Christmas Walk next Monday evening, December 18th! This takes place in the commons during the Band and Choir winter programs.
While your student is not performing you can visit the various stations with your family and take part in some fun (and free!) Christmas crafts/activities. Hope to see you there!
(If your Driver student is not in band or choir you are still welcome to attend!)
The 7th graders recently finished reading “A Christmas Carol” and had the privilege of taking a field trip to the Indiana Repertory Theatre in Indianapolis to watch a live performance of the classic story! 🎭

Keep up the great work everyone! #GoHawks
The Hawks Wrestling team kicked off their season at home vs. Cowan!

8th grade to DC, day 1! 🇺🇸
Day 2 in Washington DC started with a tour of the capitol building and a trip to the top of the Washington Monument! 🇺🇸
These four students had the honor of placing the wreath on the tomb of the unknown soldier at Arlington National Cemetery yesterday. Thank you for doing a wonderful job representing DMS!
In order to receive this opportunity the students participated in an essay contest prior to the trip and were selected as the top four essays. Great job to Sadie Heshelman, Jorja Anderson, Kendall Patterson, and Jason Ngo!
Today the 6th graders who completed the quarter 1 challenge (no missing work) got to enjoy an extended lunch/free time at the park!
The 8th grade history classes have recently been working on a project creating Native American art. Friday they were able to see actual Native American art on their field trip to the Eiteljorg Museum in Indianapolis. Thank you to Mr. Maloy for organizing this fun experience!
Our cross country runners did great at the Selma Invitational! Abram Bogue placed 5th out of 100 runners and Dani Rose 13th out of 84 runners. Way to go Hawks!
Congratulations to the 7th grade volleyball team on being the champions of the first (hopefully annual) Driver Invitational Volleyball Tournament! #GoHawks 🏐
These awesome Cross Country teammates wore purple at their first home meet and ran for Easton & to raise awareness for cystic fibrosis! 💜
All of the 8th grade students, as well as community/staff volunteers, got to participate in an amazing experience called Challenge Day! This workshop allowed them time to get to know each other on a deeper level, build connections, and learn more about how they can ‘Be The Change’ here at our school.
Thank you to Reid Health for making this event possible!
Happy Friday from the staff at DMS! We hope everyone has a great weekend; please reach out if you need anything!

Randolph Central Parents,
I hope your family had a restful summer break. Much has happened over the summer in preparation for this school year including several facility projects. We have a full staff and are excited about seeing your child(ren) tomorrow (8/9). Every Wednesday, including the first day of school, is an early release day. Usually, this is for professional development time, but on the first day of school this time is used to help students learn the process of getting to the correct bus and it allows for more time as some of the bus routes have been reorganized. Please click the link below to see the Wednesday early release schedule as well as the other schedules..
