Da Vinci Design

What an incredible start to the 2026–2027 school year! It was wonderful to see our campus come back to life as our Designers filled the hallways with excitement, laughter, creativity, and energy. From welcoming our newest freshmen to reconnecting with returning students, the first week reminded us why Da Vinci Design is such a special community.

Throughout the week, students settled into their classes, met their teachers, connected with classmates, and began building the relationships and routines that will set the foundation for a successful year. Thank you to our students, families, and staff for making the first week such a positive and welcoming experience. Your flexibility, patience, and enthusiasm helped us kick off the year on a high note!

As we head into Week 2, the excitement continues! Now that everyone has found their rhythm, it’s time to dive deeper into learning, collaboration, and all the amazing opportunities that make Da Vinci Design unique. Every day is another chance to grow, create, challenge yourself, and continue “Building What Lasts”.

Designers, let’s carry the momentum from Week 1 into an even stronger Week 2. Keep showing up, supporting one another, asking great questions, and giving your best effort. We can’t wait to see what you’ll accomplish next!

Designers, here is the bell schedule for this week!

 

MAP Growth Testing This Week

This week, our Designers will be participating in MAP Growth Testing in English and Math. MAP is an opportunity for students to show what they know and measure the growth they’ve made over time. We encourage every student to come prepared, get a good night’s sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and give their very best effort. Remember, this assessment isn’t about being perfect, it’s about showing your growth and helping us better understand how to support your learning throughout the year. Believe in yourself, take your time, and show us what you can do!
