From the Daufuskie Island Elementary School:
Daufuskie Island Elementary School welcomes 16 students in pre-kindergarten – fifth grade for the 2014/15 school year. Teachers, Amy Dungan and Kym Castillo continue for their second year on the island and look forward to stretching student learning to reach each individual’s potential. They’ll also continue to commute to school on bikes, adding to the 900 miles they logged last year getting to and from school. Leanne Coulter comes back to work with students in Speech and Resource, Amanda Lofton and Yvonne Wilson continue to keep the school running smoothly.
We look forward to planning our annual Fall Festival at the first Parent Teacher Organization meeting. Look for details on time and date of the Festival to come out soon.  
As always, we welcome community volunteers who will read one on one with a student, or share a special talent.  Contact Amanda Lofton at 686-1580 if you are interested in volunteering.
