District Advisory Committee (DAC)

The Advisory Council for Compensatory Education (DAC) is a district-level committee comprised of parents, staff, and community leaders who advise the Board of Education and district staff on behalf of Title I compensatory education program participants. Title I is a federally funded program that addresses the academic needs of underperforming students. Each school site annually elects one parent representative and a parent alternate to vote if the representative is absent. DAC provides communication, information, and training for School Site Councils. There are 25 schools with schoolwide Title I programs in the district.

District English Learner Advisory Committee (DELAC)

DELAC comprises representatives from each school's English Learner Advisory Committee (ELAC), a school-based committee required if there are more than 21 English Learners at that school. The Committee's role is to advise the district on programs and services for English Learner students. For more information, contact your school principal or ELAC chair.
