Why do we give? Because we care!

Today, we were thrilled to host guest speaker Andrea Priest. Her inspiring story showed our Eagles how courage, bravery, and kindness can be used to support others in times of need.

This assembly kicked off our community outreach partnership with Hunter’s Army.

From September 16th to 27th, we will be collecting pennies, nickels, dollars, etc., for Hunter’s Army charity.

All donations go directly to help families battling Childhood Cancer here in Yuma! I can’t wait to see our Eagles soar to the challenge.

Leadership Olympics!

Yesterday, our 5th grade Eagles participated in Leadership Olympics. Talk about bringing learning to life! Our students rotated from station to station, demonstrating communication, cooperation, reasoning, decision-making, and community outreach skills.

It was a fantastic opportunity to educate, empower, and equip our students for life!

DVA Eagles 2024

Serving as your Principal inspires absolute joy in my heart! It is with mixed emotion that I share news of my retirement, effective June 2024. This chapter is coming to a close as I open a new chapter of enjoying grandchildren, assisting with my aging parents, and traveling.

I began teaching in 1980 and have met so many wonderful people in my educational journey. Serving as an educator is such a rewarding experience. I am truly blessed to have been trusted with the privilege of serving students, families and staff over the years.

When I joined the DVA team in 2009, I never dreamed of all the adventures we would embark on together. Opportunities for learning and growing abound each day. Hand in hand with my soaring Eagles, we create a “Caring Community Where Students Excel.” 

Thank you for 15 amazing years at DVA. I am, and will always be, grateful to be a DVA Eagle. 

Remember, our character ALWAYS counts!
