The goal of the club is to teach male students manners and etiquette.\u00a0 Each month, male students at Diamond Springs Elementary dress in professional attire and attend an assembly. For the October assembly, male students learned about using manners, focusing on saying &#8220;Please&#8221; and &#8220;Thank You.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>All this work culminates in a special luncheon for the students, where they will practice the manners and social skills they have learned during the assemblies.<\/p>\n<p>The DYG club is sponsored by kindergarten teacher Brandon Thompson, in addition to other male staff at the school, including Darrin Hawes, Joseph Mayers, Walter Dreuitt, Ernest Bethel, and Johnathan Rivera.\u00a0 Community leaders also assist with the club, including Steve Spence, a financial adviser with VALIC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last month, Diamond Springs Elementary held its first Distinguished Young Gentlemen&#8217;s Assembly.
