The School Site Council
(SSC) of DPHS is seeking four new parent
representatives to serve two-year terms (2008-2010). The School Site
Council is an important part of shared school governance. The council is
comprised of teachers, parents, students and classified personnel, along with
the principal. The Council meets monthly September through June.
The Council has responsibility to annually create
and implement the school's "Single Plan for Student Achievement."
This document outlines the school's chosen improvement plan. In order to
implement this plan, the Council uses certain categorical money that comes from
various state and federal sources. The council is responsible for monitoring
and assessing the efforts of the school to reach its improvement goals each
year.
The committee contributes
significantly in setting goals for student success. This is an excellent
opportunity to learn more about school governance, finances, and academic
improvement for all students.
Parent
representatives are elected via ballots which are distributed in the
Back-to-School packet.
If
you are interested in participating, please contact Lisa Przekop at sblisaprz@gmail.com or call
893-3873. You will need to submit a brief biography (1-2 paragraphs) by
June 10th to be included on the ballot.
