Familias de Douglass, Sabemos que estos tiempos han sido especialmente difíciles para muchas familias de nuestra comunidad. Con el cierre del gobierno y otras circunstancias de la vida, algunas familias pueden estar enfrentando incertidumbre o dificultades para cubrir sus necesidades diarias. Por favor sepan que están en mis pensamientos y oraciones, y que todo el equipo de Douglass está con ustedes. Si su familia necesita un poco de apoyo adicional o desea extender una mano amiga a otros, incluimos una lista de bancos de alimentos y despensas comunitarias que pueden ofrecer ayuda. Y si necesita algo más — incluso solo hablar o recibir orientación — por favor venga a la escuela. Haremos todo lo posible para apoyarle o conectarle con los recursos adecuados. En Douglass, somos más que una escuela — somos una familia. Nos cuidamos, nos apoyamos y enfrentamos los desafíos juntos. 💚 Douglass Families, We know these times have been especially challenging for many in our community. Between the government shutdown and other life circumstances, some families may be facing uncertainty or difficulty in meeting daily needs. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers, and that our entire Douglass team stands with you. If your family needs a little extra support, or if you’d like to lend a helping hand to others, we’ve included a list of local food banks and community pantries that may assist you. And if you need anything beyond that — even just someone to talk to or help finding resources — please come by the school. We’ll do everything we can to support you or connect you with those who can. At Douglass, we are more than a school — we are a family. We care for one another, lift each other up, and walk through challenges together. 💚

Join us for today's Superintendent Search Community Meetings! 🌟

Be part of the conversation and help shape the leadership profile for our next superintendent. ✅
