Welcome to DCG Middle School! My name is Jason Snow and I am honored to serve as the principal at this incredible building. I received my Bachelors Degree in Communications- Electronic Media from the University of Northern Iowa, my Master of Arts in Teaching from Drake University, and my Master of Arts in Educational Leadership from Iowa State University. I began my educational career in Des Moines Public Schools, and served there for 18 years before joining DCG in 2025.

My family and I live in Grimes, and I have two daughters in the DCG school district. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family and playing, coaching, or watching sports. My personal mission is to be positive, work hard, help others, and have fun every single day. I look forward to supporting our staff and students at the World’s Greatest Middle School!
