DCSS Parents & Guardians,
Please use this link for an important update from the Superintendent about recent social media hoaxes affecting our school community. Your awareness is crucial. Thank you!

The district is aware of a threat circulating around the state on social media. It appears that the schools mentioned were extracted from a list of Title 1 schools listed on the GaDOE website.
Although we believe this to be a hoax, out of an abundance of caution, we are placing all schools on a soft lockdown posture until the posts are investigated thoroughly.
The safety and security of our students, employees and guests is our number one priority.
