The Burroughs Site Council is a group comprised of parents, staff, and an at-large community representative who meet monthly to deal with and give input on issues related to school operation. Site Council members are responsible for representing the interests of all Burroughs students, parents, and staff and as such, serve as a communication link between these various groups.
District Parent Advisory Council (DPAC)
DPAC provides two-way information between parents and the School District.
Volunteering
There are small and large, daytime and nighttime, weekday and weekend needs. Many volunteers are needed to tutor students, work in the media center, and help teachers with special projects.
