During the 2012-2013 school year we will increase the average from 91.5% to 95% of students feeling safe in less supervised areas as measured by a survey to be administered in late April of 2013. During the 2012-2013 school year, DMS will have 50% of the students completing an individual volunteer project outside of the school day in addition to the school adopted service projects.
