The DMS Guidance Department is where parents are able to set-up parent/teacher conferences and furnish access to the Skyward Parent Portal, which allows our parents to see student's grades as they are posted by the teacher. We believe this is an excellent tool for parents and we urge you to come to the DMS Guidance Office, so we can sign you up.
The Guidance Department assists students with personal issues, academic issues, and also works with parents to resolve any school issues. In addition, the Guidance Department can provide school supplies or other needs. We have limited access to clothing items, jackets and shoes. If your family needs assistance with these items, please contact us at: 352-465-6724.
Our goals are:
- Help children understand themselves and others
- Help to identify children with special needs
- Provide crisis intervention
- Develop plans to prevent academic/behavioral problems from developing
- Provide Career Awareness programs
- Coordinate the efforts of other professionals working for children
- Provide orientation for children coming to Dunnellon Middle for the first time
- Promote positive attitudes toward persons of diverse cultural, racial, ability, and socioeconomic backgrounds
