Good Evening Deckerville Eagle families,
After school today, Deckerville school administration was notified of a concerning social media post. Law enforcement was immediately notified and an investigation was completed. As a result of the investigation, the Deckerville Police Department has determined the threat is not credible. In addition, the Deckerville PD stated, based on the investigation, there is not a threat to our school community or to the safety of our students and staff.
Deckerville Schools will be in session tomorrow. We will have law enforcement presence on our campus throughout the day, including morning drop off and afternoon dismissal.
We are grateful for the relationship we have with our students and this community. Students and parents shared this concern with administrators and staff and it was quickly investigated. We appreciate the conversations you have had with your child/children regarding these types of incidences scenarios, and helping them understand that if you see something, say something. We are a team.
Respectfully,
Matthew Connelly, Superintendent

Schedules should be available on Skyward by Tuesday, August 20, if not sooner. Career Center students will be attending Career Center on the first day of school.
If you are going into 7th grade please do not forget about orientation on Wednesday, August 21 at 2 P.M. All incoming 9th grade students have orientation at 4 P.M. We ask that a parent or guardian attend the orientation with the students.
A few reminders for the beginning of the school year: Hats should not be worn in the building at any time (Exception: Hat Days). Deckerville is a closed campus. Students are not allowed to leave without permission from the office and a parent. Energy drinks of any kind are not permitted in the school. People under 18 should not consume these products at any time. Be aware of the dress code as stated in the student handbook. Students who violate the dress code will be asked to change clothes and may be sent home. Phones, earbuds, and smart watches are to be kept in lockers. Phones found on a student will be confiscated as explained in the student handbook. Other devices such as smart watches and earbuds are also not permitted in classrooms. Students are required to attend school all day in order to attend any after school activities. Disrespect for staff will not be tolerated. Students returning to school from the career center will not be allowed to leave the building to go out to their vehicles. Students will need to bring their items into the school in the morning before getting on the career center bus. New For the 24-25 school year - students who amass 20 tardies in a semester will be required to turn their phone into the office on a daily basis until the conclusion of the semester.
During the 2024-2025 school year, the junior high and high school students will take their first semester exams before the holiday break. Students will be taking exams on December 18 and 19. The annual holiday talent show will take place on December 20. The semester will end as normal; however, the students will take their exams before the break in hopes of increased academic success. We hope that you will ensure that your student is at school on these days.
