A MESSAGE FROM:
Douglas County Re 1
2025-2026
The mission of the Douglas County School District (DCSD) is to provide an educational foundation that allows each student to reach his or her individual potential. DCSD strives to maximize the potential of every student to pursue his or her chosen endeavor in society, including but not limited to postsecondary education, career, or military service. The core values of DCSD include: 1) Educational Excellence; 2) Human Diversity; 3) Individual Potential; 4) Lifelong Learning; 5) Productive Effort;…
6) Shared Responsibility; 7) Ethical Behavior; and 8) Continuous Improvement. DCSD is committed to ensuring that every student has access to great teachers, excellent educational programming as well as safe and secure learning facilities so that every child has the best opportunity for a bright and successful future. In September 2024, the DCSD Board of Education unanimously approved new goals, which serve as the basis for the DCSD Strategic Plan and Unified Improvement Plans. The following global end statement summarizes the Board goals for all students.     ?All students will develop the knowledge, skills, mindsets and dispositions needed to achieve their highest individual potential in a safe, accessible, thriving, and welcoming learning environment. These results shall be produced at a cost that demonstrates good stewardship of resources.?  Based on current student performance data, DCSD is Accredited by the Colorado Department of Education. After analyzing the most recent data, DCSD has identified student performance priorities, root causes, and major improvement strategies.  DCSD and all of its Title I schools have a family and parent engagement policy in place. Some schools have more in-depth parent-school compacts to promote parent engagement in student learning based upon the unique demographics and needs of their individual student populations. The policy and compacts are reviewed by parent committees at the individual schools (e.g. School Accountability Committees, learning center parent/community members, PTOs, etc.). DCSD provides guidance to the schools on their policy and compacts as necessary. Currently, DCSD has several parent groups that are active in various parent and family engagement activities for many of our subgroups (e.g. Special Education Advisory Group, Gifted and Talented Advisory Group, District Accountability Committee). DCSD has formed Conexión/Connection, an English Language Development (ELD) parent engagement and advocacy group. DCSD?s Director of Language and Cultural Equity, Title III Coordinator, Family and Cultural Liaisons, and DCSD feeder contacts work alongside parents to gather input for family engagement, outreach, and partnership. In addition, DCSD leverages Title III funds to support family outreach and partnership in all DCSD schools for multilingual parents and families. DCSD offers multilingual parent involvement activities including parent/family nights, resource fairs, understanding assessment results, understanding graduation competencies and pathways for all students, literacy and math engagement, and custom outreach based on community needs and desires. In relation to these activities, multi-language families, and any parent/guardian who has limited English proficiency regardless of the student's eligibility for ELD programming, can access translator/interpreter communication help for general communication, enrollment, parent-teacher meetings, district events, and school events. DCSD, with support from its Director of Government Affairs, provides numerous opportunities for parents to have access to resources through community and district resource fairs in the areas of mental health supports, suicide prevention, anti-bullying efforts, healthy students (nutrition, physical activity, and mindfulness), drug and alcohol abuse supports, community referral resources and partnerships, etc. DCSD also partners with HCA HealthONE on a Parent University series each year. Depending upon the student needs at individual Title I schools a variety of home-school partnership activities are employed with the support of both local funds and Title I Parent Involvement Set-Aside funds. These include among others, Parent Academies for Literacy, math nights, providing mental health support curriculum for students and families, strategies to decrease student mobility, parent surveys, parent connection letters that include strategies to use with students at home, literacy nights, individual goal setting with parents for students receiving Title I supports.
