District Preschool/ETK Advisory Committee, DPAC, is designed for parents of preschool and extended kindergarten children. At DPAC meetings, information is shared regarding the PS/ETK programs, our goals, assessments and developmental expectations. It is in these meetings that parents learn how the PS/ETK programs align to the State Standards for kindergarten and why either a PS or ETK program will prepare their child(ren) for kindergarten. It is our hope that parents will share their thoughts and ideas about how to make our preschool program more inclusive while building family involvement and quality. The DPAC meetings will be held at Longfellow's Parent Center, Room 1, from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. on September 21, November 16, February 15, and April 18, 2023.
