Meet Our Principal

A Message from Our Principal

Dear DME Coyote Families,

We are excited to welcome you to another wonderful school year at DME! It is with great pride that I introduce myself as our principal. I am honored to serve our community and dedicated to collaborating with our staff and families to foster a nurturing and enriching environment for all our students.

At DME, our mission is clear: Kid by Kid, Skill by Skill. We believe that each child is unique and deserves personalized support to thrive academically and socially. We are committed to ensuring that every student has the opportunity to succeed and grow in a safe, inclusive atmosphere.

We kindly ask that you read this handbook together with your children. Understanding our policies and procedures is crucial for creating a successful school experience. Your partnership in this process helps us reinforce the values we uphold at DME.

Desert Mountain has systems in place to make sure we meet your child’s needs. We have a full-time counselor, and reteach/enrichment time for ELA and math is built into our master schedule. Parents are a vital part of these systems. Communication between the teacher, student, parents, and support staff is the best way to contribute to student success.

Please feel free to reach out if you have questions or would like a tour of our campus. The office number is (480) 987-5912. You may also contact our registrar for enrollment questions by emailing Kristy Leon at [email protected].

Sincerely,

Dr. Amber Allen
