Update: First Day of School and New Building Construction

Da Vinci Design families and students,

We hope you are having a wonderful summer! We are excited to start the 2017-18 school year, welcoming both our new and returning students back to DVD.

As you may have already heard or seen, the opening of the new building at 201 N. Douglas is delayed for approximately 6-8 weeks. If you would like to review details regarding the delay, you can do so HERE.  Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we ensure the safety and preparedness of our new home.

Fortunately, we have a lot of practice launching a successful and exciting first day on our existing DVD campus – get ready for one more! We will be starting our school year at the Da Vinci Design site located at 12501 S. Isis Avenue and the first day of school remains on Tuesday, August 22nd.  We will begin at 9:00 am and end at 3:55 pm (returning families, this is the same as last year).  We will maintain this bell schedule at the new site.  Students – remember to look for your name on the lists near the front gate on day 1 and note who your advisory teacher is; this is the first class you will report to and here you will receive your schedule.

While we are disappointed that we cannot begin the year at our new home, we know that it will be an excellent start regardless of location because of the amazing students and staff that make DVD the very special place it is.

Please let us know if you have any questions as the school year approaches. We look forward to seeing you all on August 22nd!
