DHS School Council 2010-2011

Notices, Site Admin

Stay involved in your child’s school experiences even when they’ve reached that milestone of secondary school!!

The School Council at Dryden High would like to invite you to join us as we promote the best educational experience for our children. As part of the School Council, members stay informed and up to date on happenings and opportunities for our students. We meet the last Tuesday of each month in the DHS library from 7:00-8:30 pm. Next meeting dates are: October 26, November 30, February 22, April 26 and May 31.

Our Council is mandated the same as elementary level School Councils. We consist of a majority of parents, and are joined by community members and staff members. One major difference between secondary and elementary level councils is that we do not participate in fundraising! Fundraising at DHS is performed by student booster clubs and sports clubs as the need arises.

We welcome your involvement. For more information visit the School Council page on our website (click here) or contact Kathy McConnachie, Principal at (807) 223-2316.
