Making Waves Impact That Matters

Thank you for a fantastic year! Gratitude fills our hearts as we reflect on ALL THE THINGS . . . the learning, the successes, the failures, the events, the celebrations, the fun, the hard work and so much more. The waves of impact experienced this year will be felt for day, weeks, months and years to come!

You know we LOVE a theme! Next year Duff Elementary celebrates SIXTY years! Duff is rooted in a rich history with so many wonderful traditions; while at the same time seeking to grow and embrace change. Our theme for the 2024 - 2025 school year is ROOTED. GROUNDED. GROWING. We are looking forward to partnering with you for another fantastic year!
