On behalf of the faculty and staff, I welcome you to Dakota Elementary School. We are excited about starting the 2010-2011 school year. It is our goal at Dakota Elementary to provide quality instruction while maintaining a safe and caring environment.
We maintain high expectations and standards for our students, both academically and behaviorally. We all work together, staff, parents, students, and the community, to make Dakota Elementary the best learning environment possible.
Dakota Elementary continues to build a collaborative environment and I encourage you to visit throughout the school year. Parents are encouraged to become involved in their student’s learning and there are various opportunities available to become involved.
It is my goal to ensure every student becomes a life-long learner, making positive contributions in our ever-changing world and I look forward to building on Dakota CUD #201 traditions. I know together, we can continue to achieve greatness at Dakota Elementary.
Crystal Thorpe, Principal
