DRAGONFLY DASH 2024

It's that time again: Dragonfly Dash 2024! The Dragonfly Dash will be held at the Dillard Drive Magnet Middle School Track on March 15, 2024 (if weather does not permit the dash on 3/15/24, it will be completed on 3/22/24). The track is a standard quarter-mile (4 laps = 1 mile). Students are encouraged to collect monetary pledges for laps to raise money for classroom support, school improvements, 2024 DDMES Field Day activities, and more. Each grade level is given 20 minutes for students to complete as many laps as possible while families, friends, teachers and staff cheer them on.
