Happy New Year

Happy New Year and welcome to 2nd Semester at Dorchester Academy! I hope everyone had a wonderful and rested holiday season.

I am looking for the wall or ceiling mount kit for the old tvs. I figure someone out there got a new flat panel for Christmas and needs to dispose of the old wall mounting kit. Please let me know if you have one.

I look forward to seeing a school full of smiling faces on Monday!
