It was a treat having a Winston-Salem Symphony String Quintet perform for our 4th and 5th graders this week.
The Instructional Leadership Team is pleased to announce that: #WeMetGrowth! #WeGrewALetterGrade! We celebrated with a “Luau Day.” Dr. Dobson, Ms. Warren, and Mrs. Gordon visited classes and awarded students with green bands and teachers with leis in honor of our growth. #wsfcs #growingbyleapsandbounds
Arts Integration Kits, made possible by donations from community partners as well as a gift from NC A+ Schools, have been refurbished once again! Students and teachers are excited to receive art and music resources and supplies to further engage students in Academic Arts Integration. (A+ Schools of North Carolina are turning 30 years old, and they gifted us a "prebirthday gift."
Meet our Inaugural Group of Magnet Ambassadors. These students will serve as leaders across the school, promoting school spirit and our A+ Magnet Theme. They will support events, programs, tours, performances, and the Magnet Fair.

Shoutout to Mrs. Gordon for reaching "gold level" and becoming an Ambassador for DonorsChoose; she has been using Donors Choose for over 19 years and brought 43+ grants to our school.
Our Schoolwide Management System and Expectations are PBIS-based and called “PAWS.” We “show our PAWS” and “keep our PAWS” to be prepared, with an A+ Attitude, to work responsibly, and show respect. Today, Assistant Principal Latta, led a PBIS/PAWS Kickoff, including a “RIDES” reminder for bus safety.
Thank you to our longtime, community partner, Home Moravian Church, for the generous donation of school supplies. They also sponsored a breakfast for staff on one of the beginning-of-the-year workdays. They send volunteers to us throughout the year.
Thank you HMC for all you continue to do for us.

Welcome to the DLES Team! #Classof2038
At Diggs-Latham, we integrate Academics and Arts in all we do. Each year, we create a sub-theme that reflects just that.
This year, we are "Growing by Leaps and Bounds." Our infrastructure and instructional practices aim at best practices for academic growth. As we have reflected different aspects of our Arts Magnet theme over the years, this year, we reflect 'dance' in the "leaps and bounds" we are going to move to met and exceed growth.
Our staff made connections to the theme during our beginning-of-the-year workshops, meetings, and professional development. We even worked in small groups to teach and learn dance moves, reflecting on best practices for teaching students new concepts and scaffolding the learning.
We look forward to an exciting year, full of active engagement, "growing by leaps and bounds."
