Open Quote DeMasi is a wonderful community of teachers and students! I went to DES (plus kindergarten) and DMS, and enjoyed all nine years. So many clubs and electives. Close Quote

Open Quote A few unmotivated teachers ruin it for everyone. There are many qualified candidates- young, energetic and unemployed - who can fill in the same positions these terrible teachers cling onto. Thanks to their tenure and their refusal to step down, quality of education remains challenged in this school district. Their salaries, job security and antiquated teaching methods all persist at the expense of our children. Our tax dollars at work! Close Quote
