Second Graders Harvest School Garden Sweet Potatoes
DRES Second graders harvested our very first crop from our new community learning garden. They picked peppers, tomatoes, melons, and sweet potatoes. The students were so excited to get their hands dirty and see the results of their Spring cultivations. Not only were they able to take their veggies home to share with their family, but some were are believed to be prize winning crops. Two of the sweet potatoes have been entered into the NC State Fair for largest and most unique. Be sure to stop by and see our entry when you visit the fair this year!

Dixon Road Community Meets at the Pole
On Wednesday, September 26th, the Dixon Road community met at our flagpole to share a moment of prayer and fellowship. The "See You at the Pole" event is a global day of student prayer, which began in 1990 as a grass roots movement with ten students praying at their school. Twenty years later, millions pray on their campuses on the fourth Wednesday in September. See You at the Poleโข is simply a prayer rally where students and other community members meet at the school flagpole before school to lift up their friends, families, teachers, school, and nation to God. See You at the Poleโข is a student-initiated, student-organized, and student-led event.
