The Draper Park Middle School Community Council consists of six school employees and nine parent members, each of whom are elected for a two-year term. The purpose of the School Community Council is to build connections between the school and community it serves, provide consistent and effective communication, and ensure that parents have a voice in and are actively involved with their children’s education. Together, the SCC works with teachers and administrators to further academic success at DPMS.
The council meets the second Wednesday of each month with the exception of holidays. We do not usually meet in December, June, July, or August. Meetings will begin at 3:00 pm.
