Congratulations to Liam Bogle and Alayna Demir! Liam and Alayna were Deer Park's NEA Scholar Athlete Award winners.

The DPHS Band and Choir traveled to Vancouver BC this weekend for a music festival and sightseeing.  Both groups earned a Gold rating which is the highest possible rating based on the set of standards used at festivals all across North America.  Robert Strickland, a Junior was one of 11 students selected for the Maestro Award. He was recognized among hundreds of students who participated in the festival. Many thanks to the music boosters for the contribution!

DPSD welding student, Logan Reynolds, saved the District a lot $ using his welding skills! The generator's part (over 30 years old) was obsolete and could not be replaced. Many thanks to Logan who lead this project, recreated the complicated tank, and repaired the generator! Logan has been a two-year finalist at our State SkillsUSA welding contest and placed fourth at Tacoma last April. TIG welding is an advanced welding procedure that takes many months of practice to become proficient. Way to go Logan!
