Ok, I am thinking this is in the same family as desicrate, but the double ss in dessicate is throwing me off. I am going to guess that it means being proper - or in good taste. I am only saying that because it seems like a word I studied - but I cannot remember!
Mary's training at the Montessori school was evident during her deesicate behavior at the formal dinner.

Dessicate - to utterly destroy.
The temple was dessicated by the looters who came through in packs, during the famous Roman Greek war.
