Duxbury High School Council Meetings are held on Thursdays at 3:00 at the DHS Library Conference Room.
School Council
School Councils were established in compliance with the Education Reform Act of 1993 for the purpose of advising the principal on identifying the educational needs of students, formulating a school improvement plan based upon school and system goals, and participating in a review of the annual school budget proposal. The Council meets at least once a month, and there may be occasional subcommittee meetings to work on specific action items. The parent members of the Council are elected by the parents of a particular school for a term of up to three years. The only prerequisite for election and membership to the Council is to be the parent of a student in that school. The School Council is charged with preparing and implementing an annual School Improvement Plan.
Public Comment
At every meeting, there is an opportunity for community members to address policy, budget, or administrative concerns or to share ideas about how we can work together to improve the Duxbury Public Schools. The Comments from the Public section of the meeting are an opportunity for community members to address issues of concern about policy, budget, or administrative matters or share ideas about how we can work together to improve the Duxbury Public Schools. We value your input and respect divergent views; we only ask that you limit your remarks to two minutes and refrain from airing grievances with individual members of the school community.
Below is an email address that is available to DHS school community members for communication with the School Council. When conveying a question or concern, please use appropriate language and tone.
