DRYDEN COMMUNITY SCHOOLS

Calendar Change--Dryden High School

Friday, May 15, 2026, has changed from a full day of school to a half day of school at Dryden High School ONLY..

Dryden High School will host the MHSAA Track and Field Regional 39 meet at Stremler Field on May 15. The event begins at noon. Because some members of the high school staff volunteer at the meet, many students participate or spectate, and the parking lot will be needed for visitors, Dryden High School only will have a half day of school, dismissing at 10:35 a.m.

Parents of incoming Kindergarten and Begindergarten students - Save the date: Wednesday, May 20th #proudcardinal

Which one doesn't belong? As long as you can explain your thinking, there is no right or wrong answer. The value comes in noticing your thinking and then explaining it. There are some sentence starters to help the conversation flow. #proudcardinal

Our 6th grade classroom library had a glow up recently!
