Dunkirk City Schools have nearly 2,000 students enrolled, making it the second-largest district in Chautauqua County. The administration has made it a priority to engage more with the community and the next step in this effort is the formation of an advisory team. This team will be responsible for building relationships and partnering with family members, caregivers, and community members to support student growth and learning.

The focus of the advisory team is not seen as supplemental work but rather as critical work that needs to be integrated into everything the district is doing. According to Jennifer Westerholt, the district communications director, this meeting will take place on Tuesday, Nov. 28 from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at the Jamestown Community College north county campus location. The meeting will include a light dinner and everyone is welcome to attend.

Dunkirk schools are more proactive than ever in how they work with families, students, and city residents. The upcoming advisory team meeting is part of the district’s ongoing outreach efforts to build stronger relationships and support student success.
