Our Title I status is determined by the percentage of families that qualify for free or reduced priced school meals. Title I provides federal funding to schools to help close educational achievement gaps.
In order to continue to receive the funds that will help us maintain Title I status, please take a moment to complete the application for free or reduced priced school meals. This must be done once a year. Even if you're not sure you would qualify, please apply at myDSD.davis.k12.ut.us.

School Community Council
Serving on our School Community Council is a great way for parents to contribute and help ensure academic performance at our school. The school receives an annual dividend from the School Land Trust. Our council decides how these funds will be used. The council reviews and prepares other academic plans for our students each year. All plans are reviewed for final approval by our school board. Councils also act in an advisory capacity to school and school district administrations.
Qualifications
Every public school in Utah has a School Community Council. The councils are made up of school employees who are elected by their colleagues and parents who are elected by parents of students attending the school. Membership terms are for two years. Parents must have a student attending the school at least one of the two years of their term of service.
Time Commitment: Meet once a month for an hour meeting. Time and date to be determined by council members.
Interested?: If you would like to serve on this committee, please email me (hschulz@dsdmail.net) with your name and phone number.
