Douglas County School District Special Education Advisory Committee (DCSEAC) serves as an advisory committee to Douglas County School District’s (DCSD) Special Education Leadership Team; and is committed to a positive, professional, collaborative, and solution-seeking relationship with our school district partners.
DCSEAC’s goal is to support the students of our district who receive special education services, as well as their families and caregivers.
DCSEAC Board Members, leave their personal agendas at the door, and seek to advise in an unbiased manner that best supports the vastly-diverse abilities of all DCSD students receiving Special Education services. We are committed to preserving respectful discourse at all times and to ensure discretion around confidential topics.
Shining Stars are DCSD staff member/s and schools nominated for outstanding service by the parents and/or caregivers of students receiving special education services.
All nominees will receive a notification of their nomination/s, a Shining Star certificate, and recognition via district communications, school communications (where possible), on the DCSEAC website, and DCSEAC Facebook page.
Staff: Staff nominations will be entered into a drawing for 1 of 10 gift prizes
(sponsored by Developmental Pathways).
There is no limit to the number of staff members that you can nominate. Certificates and baskets will be delivered to staff members with your special words.
