District Advisory Council

Every school district in the State of Texas is required to establish a committee that regularly meets to plan for the improvement of student performance. The Board of Trustees for Hutto ISD has adopted a policy establishing a committee to help with the district-level planning and decision-making process. This committee is called the District Advisory Council or DAC.

The mission of the DAC is to inspire excellence in education for all Hutto ISD students through broad-based community representation. The Council is advisory in nature and approves district-level professional development plans. Other purposes include reviewing the District’s educational plans, goals, student performance, drop-out information, and major classroom instructional programs.

The DAC consists of campus-based professional staff, District-level professional staff, parents, business representatives, and community members. As required by law, at least 2/3 of the district/campus staff must be classroom teachers. Every effort is made to select non-staff members representing ethnic, grade, and program diversity.

The DAC meets approximately 3-5 times per year, usually at 5:30 p.m. at the Hutto ISD Administration Building, 200 College Street, Hutto, Texas.

To receive additional information about the DAC, contact the office of the Assistant Superintendent of Innovation & Instruction (512) 759-3771.
