DPMS provides many electives for students to choose from, but by opinion, some are better than others. Here are some of the best ones!
But all electives can be fun, so don’t discriminate!
In previous years, DPMS has had a dance concert provided by the school’s dance team. Dance members have provided us information for this year’s concert, and Mrs Wilson and the dance team have confirmed that they are having a dance concert in December for the winter dance concert this year! Details to follow from dance team members Katie O’Neal and Anna Yergensen.
“The winter concert is on December 14 at 7pm.” Says Anna Yergensen, an excellent dance team member, after being asked when the concert is. Will there be a concert this year, and if so in what form?: “Yes. Probably as an assembly. Last year they filmed it.” Says Katie O’Neal, another talented dancer. What is the theme of the concert?: “The nutcracker.” Katie informs us. Given the information, dance team members seem very excited about the concert provided this year.
A classic Christmas tradition follows the dance team’s concert, the nutcracker. The entire dance team will be doing the performance, making it the ultimate winter dance. All readers make sure to come to the nutcracker themed dance concert on December 14, 7 pm to support this year’s amazing dancers!

Since March 12, 2020, the world has been in a crazy time with a virus going around. And because of the nature of the COVID-19 virus, we had to stay at home for a while. For the rest of the interrupted 2019-2020 school year, people did school on their laptops at home. This was tough for many people, and this virus shut down the world. It also deeply split American people, mainly democrats and republicans. This is not really a subject I would like to elaborate on, after all the things it caused. After the 2019-2020 school year ended, the summer broke out, and airlines were mainly shut down, so not a lot of travel, so many people stayed home for a few months. Then once the summer ended, havoc broke out when the new school year started. It was hard on many people, especially the teachers. they had to teach the extra 70 kid class on top of all the other period classes they had to teach. But soon the vaccines rolled out, making the accessibility to school and work more applicable to people. In the end, we came together, and the world recovered.
(Disclaimer: Please do not give hate on this post, I am just identifying the problem at hand, and how we are solving it)
Middle school can be quite a jump to a new schooling, so I made a little comic montage of a typical first middle school day.
