In DPS, schools have Collaborative School Committees (CSCs) to enhance student achievement, parent engagement and positive school culture through collaboration. CSCs are also known as School Accountability Committees (SACs) in other districts and in charter and innovation schools.
The Collaborative School Committee (CSC) brings together families, staff and community members to create and implement a plan to promote high achievement within a school.

These recommendations may include ways to improve academic performance, budget priorities, and the school’s program.
