Parent Advisory Council

The Durfee Parent Advisory Council, Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering parental awareness of Durfee issues and provides a forum for addressing issues that parents and guardians feel are important in the educational process.

Meetings are held on the first Wednesday of every month in the Tradewinds Restaurant (the Weetamoe St. entrance to Durfee) at 7:00pm. (The Durfee Sports Boosters meet just prior to the Council meeting at 6:15pm.) Free pizza and coffee are served at every meeting (generously donated by Domino's Pizza and New York Bagel).

Everyone is invited to attend these meetings and become members of the Council, however, only parents and guardians of current Durfee students are eligible for voting priviledges. There is a $5.00 membership fee for anyone wishing to be a certified "member" of the council.

Meetings are planned and conducted by elected officers from the ranks of the Council membership and, whenever possible, are attended by the principal. There are Committee updates presented at each meeting. Committees include: After-Prom, Fundraising, and Al Attar Scholarship Committees. You can read more about each of these committees by clicking on the specific committee.

Please consider stopping in at one of our meetings and learning what the Council is all about. It's a great way to lean about what is happening at Durfee!

The Durfee Parent Advisory Council meets as a whole group the first Wednesday of each month. The council has a few subcommittees.
