Overview

The DCPS Chancellor’s Parent Advisory Board provides a space for the Chancellor and other DCPS leaders to engage and build relationships with a diverse group of parents and caregivers from each ward that are representative of DCPS student and family demographics. During Advisory Board meetings, parents receive timely updates from the Chancellor and DCPS leadership, can ask questions as well as engage with various DCPS teams to learn about and provide input on current or emerging priorities and initiatives.

Board members serve for one school year (September – May), they represent different school communities, students and families from all eight wards. Members are selected based on their connection and commitment to DCPS, their diverse backgrounds, and experiences.
