Supt's On: Social Emotional Learning |
On this episode of Supt's On, Superintendent Corey Wise talks about Social Emotional Learning (SEL), a main focus in DCSD this year. While SEL isn’t new to DCSD, it’s more critical than ever as students, staff, and families cope with the ongoing COVID pandemic.
SEL helps children learn critical skills such as self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, decision-making, and relationship building which in turn can help reduce stress, anxiety, and other potential barriers to learning. See what SEL looks like at three DCSD schools and hear why it's such an important element for our school communities.

Standard Response Protocol (SRP) |
SRP includes five actions: Hold, Secure, Lockdown, Evacuate, and Shelter. |
How do I update my emergency contact information? Log in to the Infinite Campus Parent Portal ( campus.dcsdk12.org) and click on “More” in the left-hand column. Navigate to “Family Information” and review your contact information. If you see an incorrect phone number or email, please update it in Infinite Campus, or contact the registrar at your child’s school to request an update. How do I sign up for emergency text messages? You must select to receive text messages from our system. Confirm that you have selected to receive text messaging (SMS) for emergency and/or school notifications through Infinite Campus Parent Portal. If you previously opted out and would like to opt-in, text “YES” to 68453. What phone number will my caller ID show when I get calls? When you receive communication from the DCSD SchoolMessenger system, the number displayed will depend on the type of message. The two types of communication include:
- Emergency Notifications - 855-695-9448
- For critical communications such as SRP
- Standard/School Notifications - 877-279-4061
- For general communications such as lunch balance, event reminders, etc.
You may wish to add both notification phone numbers to your contacts. Have additional questions? Should you have additional questions, please contact the IT Support Center (303-387-0001) to ensure you receive emergency notifications accurately and quickly. |
