Our School

Hello Gilbert Heights Families,

We have opened our doors to welcome students back into the  classrooms!  It looks and feels differently as we have health and safety measures strictly in place, but the sound of voices filling the classrooms warms  my heart. We have 52% of our students participating in our hybrid model and 48% staying in CDL. No matter what model works for you or your child, we are committed to finish the year strong. Thank you for the work and support on the parent side of things. 

We are in the process of accepting kindergarten registrations. If you know of someone who will be five (5) years of age on or before September 1, 2021 they are eligible to enroll for Kindergarten. Please complete the on-line registration form: https://www.ddouglas.k12.or.us/parents/registration-enrollment/kindergarten-registration/
To learn more about our kindergarten program, plan on attending our VIRTUAL Connect to Kindergarten event on April 27 at 6:00pm.  Join us on Google Meets: meet.google.com/bkz-yfqb-zif.

Thank you,

 Barbara Kienle, Principal
