Yesterday, we had over 30 enthusiastic high school students travel by bus to cheer on our amazing Lady Trojans at the away girls volleyball semi-final game. Their support truly made a difference, and moments like these highlight what makes Durham School District so special.
A huge thank you to our Sports Boosters for covering the students' tickets and bus fees, as well as a big shoutout to Golden Valley Dental for providing dinner for our students.
Go Durham!

Hey Durham Community.
We wanted to share that yesterday, DIS had a fantastic assembly hosted by the Butte County Sheriff's Office on the critical topic of online safety. They learned valuable tips on how to stay safe while using social media, gaming, chatting, and other online activities. It was an incredibly educational presentation, and we are grateful for the insights shared.
Thank you to the Butte County Sheriff's Office for equipping our kids with the knowledge they need to stay safe online.

What a great start to the 2025 Homecoming. Today at DHS, the dress-up theme was "Dress Up as Mr. Stanley," and our students really knocked it out of the park—they definitely know Mr. Stanley's style. Just a reminder that tonight at 7:00 PM, we have a very exciting Power Puff game lined up. For those who can't attend but still want to catch the fun activities, it will be streaming live at https://fan.hudl.com/usa/ca/durham/organization/10882/durham-high-school
