9/19/2023

 
We at Dovercourt’s School Advisory Committee (SAC) hope the 2023/2024 school year has been off to a fantastic start for you and your family. We’re energized and eager to sharpen our (literal and metaphorical) pencils to help create another great year at Dovercourt.

Our first SAC meeting of the school year is on Wednesday, September 27th at 6:30pm in the school's staff room. We'll be talking about our fall Welcome Back Open House, our enrichment plans, new fundraising initiatives, and more — plus, of course, Principal Caitland Ellis's report on the start of the school year. Free childcare is available. Please join us!
