Discover Student Life as a Dolphin!

Driven by the motto "Dolphins Belong," Dogwood celebrates and appreciates everyone in our community. From hands-on exploration in ELA, math, science, social studies, and the arts to engaging clubs like steel drum band, guitar club, art society, yearbook, and K-Kids, there’s truly something for everyone.

Students can shine as leaders in safety patrol, student ambassadors, or the principal’s advisory council and stay active with school sports like track and cross country. Whether your interests are artistic, athletic, academic, or leadership-driven, Dogwood is where you belong!
