3 Question Survey Regarding Dunwoody High School “Block” Schedule

DHS is currently on the 4×4 block schedule.  I’m not familiar with the details or I would explain.  I’ll keep the comments open on this post so that anyone who wants to elaborate can feel free to submit a comment! DHS is considering a change in the block schedule.   This topic will affect all kids who will eventually be attending Dunwoody High School.   So, if you have kids who will potentially be attending DHS in the next few years, you may want to vote on this.   Please note that the survey is designed for families with kids currently in grades 8-12.   If you have kids younger than that you can still click on the survey to read about the four options that are being voted on but only families with kids in grades 8-12 are asked to officially vote.

Begin Forwarded Message from DHS:

We would like to revisit the current scheduling model used by Dunwoody High School (4×4 Block). In order to do that, we would like to have your input on different scheduling model options. We have included “Pros & Cons” for each model to better explain each option.

Please note, we have a very short timeframe. All entries must be submitted by SEPTEMBER 1. There is only one “vote” per family. Please be aware that the students will take this survey in their homerooms the week of August 29th. Please
use the link below to complete the 3 question survey. Thank you for your input.

More changes to Dunwoody public schools~you can give your opinion here!

(note:  Survey closes at midnight on 6/1 so act fast!)

The DeKalb County School System presented its draft proposal for the ten year master facilities plan and the draft projects’ list for the SPLOST IV resolution to the Board of Education during a Committee of the Whole Meeting on May 27, 2011.  The presentation is posted on the DCSS website for public viewing.

After reviewing the presentation, the public is encouraged to provide questions and comments regarding the draft plans via a short survey located on the district’s website at http://www.dekalb.k12.ga.us/vision-2020/master-plan.  The survey will open on May 27, 2011 at noon and will be available until June 1, 2011 at midnight.

The DeKalb County School System Board of Education is expected to take a final vote on the SPLOST IV resolution on June 13, 2011. The resolution presented for action will be a joint resolution consisting of projects from DeKalb County Schools, Atlanta Public Schools, and Decatur City Schools that will appear on the November 2011 voting ballot for the SPLOST IV referendum.
