DCS Families, Don't forget students at all four schools receive free breakfast and lunches through the Community Eligibility Program under the National School Lunch Program and/or School Breakfast Program! Children need healthy meals to learn. CEP gives food service professionals more time to focus on preparing nutritious meals that their students will enjoy and gives students more time to eat those meals by cutting down on time spent in the lunch line. More importantly, by offering all students a nutritious breakfast and lunch at no cost, CEP helps ensure more students come to class well-nourished and ready to learn. Demopolis City Schools offers healthy meals every school day, so please encourage students to participate.

Demopolis City Schools has some changes on the horizon. Tonight, at a special called board meeting, DCS board members approved a contract with Dr. Bobby Hathcock to serve as Interim Superintendent. Dr. Hathcock spoke, thanking the board for this opportunity. He assured those in attendance that his door is open, that he will put his heart into this role, and that he is excited to begin. The board also approved contracts for Brandi Smith to serve as the Westside Elementary School Principal, Elizabeth Fleming as U.S. Jones Elementary School Principal, and Allene Jones as Demopolis Middle School Principal, effective August 1, 2024. With these changes, we are confident that the faculty and staff in this system are committed to our students and making this the best year yet. A complete version of this meeting's minutes will be posted on the District website as soon as they are available.
