To celebrate the 67th day of school, teachers and staff across the district had some fun with a playful nod to “6–7.” Classrooms were decorated, festive shirts were worn, students worked on fun 6–7 themed projects, and surprises greeted kids at every turn.
At CDIS, the morning announcements were packed with 6-7 references and Officer Witt delivered a perfectly timed “6–7” joke for “Witty Wednesday.” During the day, each grade level even got a playful reminder that they had “6–7 minutes” before lunch and recess.
💛💜 Thank you to our incredible teachers and staff for making 6–7 Day such a fun and memorable surprise for our kids! Your creativity and enthusiasm made the 67th day of school unforgettable. 🎉

We are proud to recognize Brandon Peters, a middle school student whose resilience, creativity, and personal growth have made a strong impression on teachers and classmates alike.
Brandon brings a mature and positive attitude to his classes each day. He participates thoughtfully in discussions, encourages his peers, and helps maintain a welcoming, productive learning environment. His perfect attendance highlights his commitment to being present, engaged, and ready to give his best each day.
Over the past year, Brandon has faced challenges with remarkable strength and determination. He often credits the supportive people around him for helping him stay focused and hopeful during difficult times. His gratitude, paired with his perseverance, makes him a powerful example for those around him.
Brandon has also shown impressive academic growth. He approaches complex ideas with curiosity and insight, and his writing is developing into a rich, creative voice filled with vivid details and meaningful dialogue. Outside of traditional academics, Brandon especially shines in the areas he loves most: art and choir. He values the creativity that comes with making art and loves the idea that you can bring something into the world that has never existed before.
Brandon’s positivity, resilience, and passion for learning make him an exceptional choice for Student of the Month. Congratulations, Brandon!

Students got fired up for the upcoming winter sports season as the school recognized all of their incredible athletes. Then the teachers took the stage with an epic lip-sync battle—and after some unforgettable performances, Mr. LaPage, Ms. Sullivan, Mrs. Jory, and Mr. Heiting came out on top! 👏🔥
A huge shoutout to Mrs. Moulton, Ms. Garrity, Mrs. Grantz, Mrs. Schaller, and Mrs. Barnes who also brought the energy and made the assembly a blast!
Students kept the excitement rolling with a competitive pizza box challenge, where the last student standing with their box balanced on their hand claimed the win. And of course… they wrapped it all up with a crowd-favorite T-shirt toss! 👕✨

Thanks to the hard work of our National Honor Society students—and the generosity of our community—25 local families will have everything they need to celebrate Thanksgiving.
NHS students assembled 25 Thanksgiving baskets filled with all the fixings for a traditional holiday meal, along with additional non-perishable foods and hygiene items. This project was made possible by incredible community support:
• Cram Chiropractic donated laundry detergent
• Kwik Star contributed a $200 gift card that provided milk, bread, butter, and eggs
• MJ’s East donated milk and eggs
• Community members donated non-perishable food and hygiene products
• Central DeWitt employee jeans days raised funds that helped purchase additional needed items
We are truly thankful to have students who lead with compassion and a community that shows up to support our families. Your kindness and generosity are making a meaningful difference this Thanksgiving.💜💛
