Denison Elementary School

Message from the Principal

We are excited to have all our staff and students in one building at Denison Elementary! We are entering a new era, as we transition our 3rd grade students to Broadway Elementary. This makes Denison Elementary a Preschool through 2nd grade building. Preschool rooms are moving from the annex building. DES will now be home to over 580 students and 100 staff excited to serve our students! Please take some time to read through the parent letter. It addresses the topics are that tend to be the most important to families. If you have any questions, please contact the school. Together we can be responsible, do our best, and help make this a great year at DES!

Sincerely,

Christopher Schulz, PK-2 Principal and Early Childhood Director
