Community growth is driving the bond proposal in North DeSoto. A new high school will not only help the district meet expected growth, but will also provide a dedicated performing arts and career and technical education wings, a new turf practice field and an indoor multipurpose facility that will accommodate band, cheer, dance line and JROTC. In addition there will be a new training facility for wrestling and a new baseball/softball complex.

Dear NDLE Families,
We are excited for the start to the 23/24 School Year tomorrow. Just a few reminders: 1.) Drop-offs begin at 7:10 am. 2.) There are no walk-ups or walk-to-class to allow everyone to be safe and traffic flowing as smoothly as possible on campus. 3.) 100% First Graders come to school, 50% Kindergarten Students come to school. Please only send your child on the day his/her teacher put in your letter. PK Students and parents will conference on your scheduled day. 4.) Afternoon Car Pick-Up will begin at 2:50 pm. Please do not enter the line earlier than 2:45 pm if you do not have a 3 year old. 5.) Free Breakfast and Lunch provided to all students with no forms to fill out. 6.) Please feel free to send a water bottle for your child to fill at one of our several bottle filling stations. 7.) Due to the extreme temperatures we have been experiencing, all P.E. and Recesses will be inside until we begin to experience lower temperatures. We thank you for entrusting us with your children and look forward to an exciting school year beginning tomorrow.

Dear NDLE Parents,
It is almost that time! The anticipation is building as the start of school is right around the corner. We are also excited, at NDLE, to be able to start one Three Year Old PK Class. As we do that, we also have the need to adjust our car pick-up and drop-off times. The drop-off time for Four Year Old PK, Kindergarten, and First Grade Students is from 7:10 am-7:40 am. The drop-off time for our Three Year Old PK will be 7:40 am-7:50 am. In the afternoon, the Three Year Old PK will be picked up first from 2:35 pm-2:45 pm in the PK Only Line. In the afternoon, the Four Year Old PK, Kindergarten, and First Grade Students will begin pick-up at 2:50 pm. Our Number One Responsibility is Student Safety, therefore, Four Year Old PK, Kindergarten, and First Grade Parents will not be able to line up until Three Year Old PK Students are gone at 2:45 pm. These are guidelines that we must adhere to, but also allows us to fulfill our required academic minutes by adding ten minutes to our day, and keeping our campus pick-up as smooth and efficient as possible. Thank you for partnering with us in the implementation of this process.
Come join us!
We would like to thank our Student Services Department and other DeSoto District Leaders who made it possible to provide needed school supplies for all students. Parents do not need to buy school supplies! The only items still required are clear or mesh backpacks, red, white, or navy polo shirts, as well as navy or khaki pants.
All DeSoto Students will continue to have the opportunity for free breakfast and lunch as well. #DeSotoServes #DreamBelieveAchieve

Dear NDLE Parents,
We hope you are enjoying your Summer as we near the start of the 23/24 School Year. It has come to our attention that some class rosters have been inadvertently shared on one of our platforms. To alleviate any confusion, we wanted to let you know that classes have not been finalized. Your child's teacher will mail their welcome letter on Thursday, July 27th. Reminder that our Open House will be Thursday, August 3 from 4:00-6:00 pm. Please enjoy the rest of your Summer Break!
