Dumas Intermediate School

Happy National Grandparents Day. We are deeply grateful for the rich heritage and legacy that so many of our students carry through their families. It's a privilege to see those values reflected in your grandchildren who attend Dumas Intermediate School. We also recognize that grandparents often play a special role in a child's life, offering love, support, and encouragement. Your warm hugs and kind words are some of the greatest blessings in their lives, and we are thankful for the positive impact you continue to have on them.
