DCPC -
If you want to
be in the know on issues that affect our local schools, this is the
group to get involved in. The Dunwoody-Chamblee Parents Council is
an organization that brings parents,
school board members, school officials, and legislators together to
discuss topics that affect public schools in our community. Meetings are
generally held
on the first Wednesday of each month with refreshments at 8:45AM
and a meeting start time of 9:15AM. |

New
Dunwoody Academy Proposal (4/15/08) -
There has been much discussion in the community
since the announcement on April 15, 2008 by Superintendent Dr. Crawford
Lewis to create a 4th/5th Grade Academy on Womack Road at the site that
was to be a traditional K-5 elementary school (new attendance lines
announced on 9/24/07). Various web sites/blogs are available for
local residents to discuss and share their opinions on this decision
(see below). DISCLAIMER: These links are being
provided to Kingsley parents via our web site as a means of informing
you on the issue and the various opinions and do not necessarily reflect
the opinions of the school administration or Charter Council. We
encourage our parents to be informed on these issues and to be part of
the discussion.
Letter
sent May 8th to the Kingsley parents from Tom Lambert - Kingsley Charter
Council Chair.
