Happy October! We hope all the students had a great start to their school year.
For all the grade 7 students and their parents that are looking for more information about the DT Odyssey Program, we kindly invite you to attend the information night on Wednesday, October 18th, from 6:30 PM to 8 PM in the school auditorium. Please enter through the main entrance on 55th Avenue (not through all the other building doors) that leads directly to the auditorium.
The information night will provide families with more insight into the program and an opportunity for families to interview currently enrolled students. For students and parents that cannot make the evening information session, please view the DT Odyssey website for important dates, application procedures, program description, and contact information.
Please see program brochure that will be distributed on information night.
As we usher in the new school year, DT wishes all our new grade 8s a wonderful start to their new high school life and a big welcome back to all the other students!
To all the grade 7 students and families that are viewing our website, we hope to provide some background information about our Odyssey program.
