First grade students at Dillsboro Elementary School are hard at work learning to read! Students learn reading and spelling skills using a multi-sensory approach, which teaches the connections between letters and sounds. Students love using these different strategies as they become fluent readers!

Dillsboro Elementary School cut the ribbon on a new playground Friday! Students played a part in the playground design by voting on the new equipment they would like to play on. 🛝 Thank you to the PTO members, the Aurora Lions Club, Southeast District of the Elks of Indiana, Civista Bank, Dillsboro Civic Club, Friendship Bank, the Ross Foundation, and generous local donors for making this new playground possible. DES would also like to thank Brad Higgins, of TBG Earthworks, for volunteering to remove the old metal play equipment that had been in place since 1953 and for preparing the ground for the installation of the new equipment.
