Trailblazers,
We had a teacher's car side-swiped yesterday in the front parking lot. It left damage on both doors on the drivers side. The person that hit it didn't leave a note or alert anyone to the accident. If you have any information about this incident, please call the front office or email Mrs. Keltner as soon as possible. Thank you.

Dear Parents/Guardians,

In an effort to improve our schools, the Leon County School District is conducting a 2024 Spring Parent/Guardian Climate Survey. We value your opinion and ask that you please take the time to complete this survey based upon your experiences at your child's school. If you have children at multiple school sites (example - one child in elementary school and one child in high school), we respectfully ask that you complete one survey for each school. If your children attend Ft. Braden or Woodville K - 8 School you only need to complete one survey.

Trailblazers,
The Trailblazer Fitness Adventure (TFA) was a HUGE success today. I am overwhelmed with gratitude for all the volunteers who made it possible for us to run this event, and I’m blown away by the generous support of our community. We’ve raised over $81,000 for new playground equipment, technology, and learning materials that will go straight to our classrooms. It is amazing what our school community can accomplish when we’re all working together. This past Tuesday, our school board approved our intermediate playground project, so we should see progress on it very soon.

Dear Trailblazer parents/guardians,

Our TFA Daily Adventure Rallies have been full of energy and excitement! So far, students have learned about taking personal responsibility to be Genuine, Resourceful, and Optimistic as we discuss a different letter in our iGROW acronym each day.

In our fundraiser, we just reached 77% of our $75,000 goal. We are excited to be raising funds for new playground equipment, and last night, Phase 1 of the playground project was approved by our school board! Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far. Please continue sending pledge requests to family and friends at https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2f%2f%2fpledgestar.com%2fdesototrail&c=E,1,ajuBTHfB6JPHvfszT-2E6jWCUyyf0UsZKvTXRKf0o3QmpRbNDBvY-56ay_V3yxZoyyIfmZID-pE1GCrmaCPsExY5d-TuGf5o4qh5w84EpGhFFSYUXHCdBA,,&typo=1<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=http%3a%2f%2fwww.pledgestar.com%2fdesototrail&c=E,1,KWy62e6cJDmhoTIk6qz_UYdMdr2HC7ws6c89s6tIHeBYd4z241Rimgf_pXw0OqUJHSEy7tWH1j0y-qNFMotqrK4sE6AVWLTwpHO9OBmfx3EoJOmvoIFBzdoFHg,,&typo=1>.

Please see the sign-up link below. While slots are listed by grade level and teacher so you know which room to report to; however, you will work with every class at the grade level as they rotate through that classroom, so you don’t have to limit yourself to your child’s teacher.

Trailblazers, the FOCUS Parent Portal connects to the student information system for all students enrolled in Leon County Schools. If you haven’t already, please take a few minutes to add the FOCUS app to your phone. In the app, you can access your student’s barcode for quickly signing in or out at our kiosk, check academic progress, and view attendance records. Many forms can also be completed electronically in the app or on the Parent Portal website.

Trailblazers,
If you pre-ordered tickets for the FSU vs. Syracuse game, you can pick them up in our front office starting TODAY. Our office hours are 7:45am to 4:15pm.

We will not send tickets home with students, so an adult must come into the office to sign for them.

You will receive the number of tickets you ordered, but once we're all seated in the block of seats we're assigned, you are free to move around to sit near friends, if you would like. We just need to stay within our block of seats.

Remember students return to school on Tuesday, March 21st. See you then!

Trailblazers,

It has come to our attention that some recent time-sensitive listserv messages were delayed by several hours, including the message about the tornado warning yesterday.

We are working on a new system for more timely distribution of emails like this. The new system will require your Parent Portal email address to be accurate. Please contact our front office if you need to update your Parent Portal email address.

Trailblazers,

A tornado warning was issued for our area at approximately 10:30 am. The tornado warning was lifted at 11:00 am, and we got back on our daily schedule.

Our tornado drill procedures were followed, and all students and staff members are safe.

We will continue to monitor the storm throughout the day and send updates if needed.

Trailblazer parents/guardians,

In addition to the reminder below, we want to also remind you that the speed limit in our school zones is now 15mph. Also, if you're coming to campus from Thomasville Road via Velda Dairy, you're not to turn left onto Tredington Park Dr. during the high traffic times of school start and dismissal times. This blocks traffic on Velda Dairy and causes motorists to drive around folks and they don't see pedestrians in the crosswalks. We worked hard with the City of Tallahassee to make Velda Dairy safer for those students and their families walking to and

The Florida Legislature passed legislation (316.1895 ) in 2019 regarding changes to uniform system of traffic control devices and pedestrian control devices for use on the streets and highways in the state surrounding all schools, public and private. The Florida Department of Transportation is in the process of changing signs in schools zones to comply with the legislation. DeSoto Trail Elementary School was included in this change.

Trailblazer parents/guardians,
Please see the attached transportation reminders. We are having some issues with parents parking in the front parking lot and either letting students out on their own or parents walking students to the cross walks to walk onto campus. Please remember, all car riders should be dropped off in the car drop-off line, unless the parent has a meeting scheduled on campus and comes to the front office to check in. If you have any questions, please contact the front office. We appreciate everyone's cooperation in following our procedures to ensure our students' safety.

Dear Parents/Guardians,

In an effort to improve our schools, the Leon County School District is conducting a 2022 - 2023 Fall Parent/Guardian Climate Survey. We value your opinion and ask that you please take the time to complete this survey based upon your experiences at your child's school. If you have children at multiple school sites (example - one child in elementary school and one child in high school), we respectfully ask that you complete one survey for each school. If your children attend Ft. Braden or Woodville K - 8 School you only need to complete one survey.

Trailblazer parents,

I have recently received additional complaints from residents of the Tredington Park neighborhood, and I need your cooperation to resolve the issues. It's being reported that many DTES parents are using N. Umberland Drive as a quick cut-through to access the front of the school. The residents are stating that parents are speeding in and out from Kerry Forrest at Trotters Walk making it almost impossible to safely cross N. Umberland to get on the sidewalk on the other side of the road. Aside from speeding, there are the additional issues that parents are creating by parking along

We are excited to open our campus to grandparents this Friday and want to ensure a smooth experience for everyone. Please read this logistical information.

All parents: do not arrive for regular car pick-up prior to 2:15pm. The car loop must be kept clear for grandparent drop-off/pickup and our shuttle bus.

Trailblazers, please share this information with any grandparents who plan to attend Grandparents’ Day this Friday.

All visitors to our campus must have their ID scanned by our security system. We are anticipating many visitors on Friday, which will result in lines for our two ID scanners.

If you have not visited our campus yet this year, we encourage you to drop by the school between 9:00am and 4:00pm one day this week to pre-scan your ID. This will enable you to skip the line for the scanners when you check in on Friday.

A message from Superintendent Hanna;

The 72-hour weather forecast for Leon County does not include any tropical storm force winds in our area with only the possibility for isolated wind gusts between 20-35 mph on both Thursday and Friday. The Leon County Emergency Management and National Weather Service in Tallahassee have also reduced the amount of anticipated rain, as a result of Hurricane Ian, down to less than 1 inch for our area.

Good afternoon, Trailblazers,

Leon County Schools will be OPEN tomorrow, Wednesday, September 28th. After consulting with emergency management, shelters will not be opening on our campuses tomorrow which allows schools to remain open. We will update you tomorrow afternoon if there are any changes to school operations for Thursday.
