Community Council

Click here to Refresh this page for current information

This group is open to everyone and includes families, staff, board members, students, and interested community members. Two parents are elected to be parent representatives to the DaVinci Charter School (Garden City Community School) Board and maintain communication between the groups – although everyone is encouraged to participate in all school board meetings.

It has been established as a forum for all stakeholders to discuss aspects of the schools, share opinions and ideas, and help create or fine-tune various aspects of the school.  We are a very “transparent” school and believe we can only be successful if everyone feels welcome and important – because they certainly are!
