Today was our final dress up day for Christmas Spirit Week! Today was Christmas pajama day and our winners were Jack Neumeister, Brylee Wagner and Peyton Engelken! #drexlerms #wdbqschools

Four baritone and tuba Drexler students attended their first Tuba Christmas at the University of Dubuque last Thursday!
What is Tuba Christmas you ask?
It is a beloved tradition started in 1974 by Harvey Phillips in New York City's Rockefeller Plaza as a tribute to his teacher, William J. Bell, who was born on Christmas Day. Hundreds of Tuba Christmas performances are held each year for all ages and skill levels, supporting the Harvey Phillips Foundation's mission to promote low brass music. #drexlerms #wdbqschools

Thank you to all of our generous donors for the DMS Angel Tree fundraiser!
Our Drexler students, their families, and our community came together to donate an incredible $7,812 to support Bobcat families right here in our very own community!
Today, our Leadership class students had the opportunity to shop and fill wish lists, and the joy they returned with was truly priceless. It was wonderful to see how meaningful and positive this experience was for each of them.
Seeing the true meaning of Christmas in action and spreading holiday joy is incredibly heartwarming. Thank you for helping make a difference for our Bobcat families! 🐾🎄
**Stay tuned for special coverage from KCRG on this awesome story coming soon! #drexlerms #wdbqschools
