Message to Families from Superintendent May-Vollmar:

Dear DSUSD Families,

I am so excited to welcome you to the 2026–2027 school year! We cannot wait to see students back on campus and reconnect with families. We are honored to partner with you to ensure your child has an enriching and fantastic school year.

Our Desert Sands team has been working hard all summer to ensure our schools are ready for a smooth and successful First Day. Please enjoy this welcome back video. As always, if you need anything, don't hesitate to reach out to your child’s school. We are always here to help.

On behalf of the Board of Education, our entire district staff, and myself, I wish you and your family a wonderful school year!
