What is DAC?
What is DAC?
What is DAC?
The District Advisory Council (DAC) for Compensatory Education is a district-level advisory committee made up of parents, school staff, and community members. The DAC advises the Board of Education and district staff on programs and services that support students participating in Title I and other compensatory education programs.
Federal law requires parents to be involved in developing and reviewing the Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) and the district's Title I Parent and Family Engagement Policy. In San Diego Unified, the DAC serves as the primary advisory group for these responsibilities.
Membership
Each school designates one School Site Council (SSC) member to serve as its voting representative on the DAC.
DAC representatives:
Attend monthly DAC meetings.
Represent the interests of their school community.
Share information with their School Site Council.
Bring feedback and questions from their SSC to the DAC, ensuring two-way communication between the district and school sites.

Provide input on the Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP).
Review and revise the District Title I Parent and Family Engagement Policy, as needed.
