DMCI Parent Grad Committee

History
For many years, DMCI parents and family members have taken an active role in planning and participating in their child's Safe Grad Dinner and Dance. Without the help of these hardworking committee members, there would be no Safe Grad and fewer memories for their children. We have always been fortunate to have had strong parent support over the years and we hope to carry on this fine DMCI tradition this school year.

The DMCI Parent Grad Committee meets with Teacher Advisers once a month over the course of the school year to discuss fundraising options to lower ticket costs, as well as ways to ensure that the Safe Grad component of the Dinner/Dance evening runs smoothly and is always a success. We welcome not only parents but aunts, uncles, older siblings and former DMCI Alumni to join our meetings. We will send an e-mail reminder the week before the meetings and all of the dates will be marked on our website calendar. Past committee members have said that the monthly meetings are relaxed and a nice way to connect with other DMCI parents. They are usually about an hour in length.
 
Previous fundraising experiences such as Walmart hotdog sales and Bud, Spud and Steak Nights have been full of laughter and fun memories. Safe Grad activities such as our annual Fun Casino allows family members to play the role of casino dealers and silent auction callers. Although we aren't sure who enjoys the Fun Casino aspect more, the parents or the students, the smiles are a sure indication that it is a lot of fun for everyone involved.

If you would like to be a vital  part of your child's graduating year or would like more information about the DMCI Parent Grad Committee, please contact one of the teacher advisers listed below using their e-mail address or at 204-783-7131. We look forward to seeing you at our next meeting!

Final Farewell Message

Hello parents/guardians, 

​Just a reminder to your child to please save anything important from your WSD Google Drives and emails to their personal account by Monday as your access will be removed sometime next week.

A link to the ceremony pictures was sent out via email.  You should be able to download your specific pictures. Please note if you are posting pictures with others in it, that you have their permission to do so.

If your child requires anything, our school will still be open next Wednesday to Friday.  They can call the school at 204-783-7131.  I will have limited access to my emails so any inquiries can be made by calling the school.

If your child has a cheque to pick up at the school from winning an award they can come pick it up at the times below:
Today until 3:30 pm; Wednesday, July 2 or Thursday July 3 from 9 am to 12 pm in Room 24.
Please let Mr. Trieu know ahead of time when you are coming so that he can prepare it ahead of time.  You can reach him by Telegram:  @btrieu or via email at [email protected] - If you have a thank you card for the donor, you can drop it off when you pick up the cheque.  As well, don't forget your SIN card.

The school will re-open again with the office staff on August 18 and the Guidance Team will be returning on August 25th. 

Have a wonderful summer and take care!
WSD Honours 2025 Graduates
Due to the cancellation of the Grad Pow Wow last week, WSD will be honouring the Grads at the Duckworth Centre on Monday,  June 16, 2025.

As this event is coming soon, we as a school need to know which graduates can come.  Lunch will be provided at school and then attendees will be transported to the Duckworth Centre via school bus and transported back to DMCI.

We have shared this Google form on our Grad 2025 Google Classroom but if you can ask your child to fill it out by 3:30 pm TODAY (June 11th) it will help our school determine how much lunch to order and how many buses we need.

Here is the link:

WPS News Release - Public Awareness: High School Senior Assassin Game

The WPS issued a News Release yesterday advising of a social media trend and its existence in local high schools involving graduating students. The live-action game is called “Assassin”, in which players, graduating high school students, engage in "taking out” fellow students using water pistols to eliminate one another In an effort to become the last surviving player. The general public may not be familiar with this “game” and not recognize the activity as such and place a call for police to attend, as the activity is not limited to school property and can occur at any time of day. This may cause strain on police resources as units are dispatched away from community members with legitimate calls for service.

The Winnipeg School Division encourages parents /guardians to speak with their children in their care and advise against engaging In this activity. To our knowledge, this live-action game Is not taking place in our schools. Should you become aware of any activity occurring in your school/community, please email Ms. Brenda Lapointe, Board and Community Liaison Officer at brlapointe@wsd1 .org to report the activity.
