8th Grade students toured John Deere Ottumwa Works this week. We appreciate John Deere offering STEM outreach, including classroom materials for activities. Leading up to the tour, the 8th graders have been building rubber band powered tractors and they also learned about John Deere's plans for equipment that are being developed this year. Teacher Derek Robison shared, "[t]his is our second year to make the trip, it's a great experience for our 8th graders to see the different careers available at a place like John Deere. They also get to see into the world of what it's like to be an engineer. " #STEMatDCMS #DCMS #STEM

Mustang Nation: The following is a statement from the Davis County A-Club. Please consider rising to the occasion and continuing this great effort of supporting Davis County Athletics and the future generation of student-athletes. "The Davis County A-Club has a long tradition of financially supporting Davis County athletics and activities. Over the course of the last year the A-Club board has worked hard to attract new active members to serve on our Board and to drive our mission forward. Unfortunately, that effort has not produced results. Our current Board and active members have all served for nearing a decade. It’s simply time for a new generation of parents and community members to get involved and help provide our kids the resources needed to be successful. Because of the failure over the last year to attract active members the Board has made the difficult decision to disband the DC A-Club. This decision was not made lightly. The other schools in our conference and those we also compete against will continue to fundraise and collectively work to put their athletes in the best position to be successful. Our hope is that this disbandment is short term and that new members will volunteer to move the A-Club forward. The current Board have all agreed to work with those that are willing to get involved so that they are able to move the Club forward. Those wishing to get actively involved should please reach out to Dave Mason at the school.”
