Commitment to Change

DPS is committed to taking significant steps to enhance the academic, personal and professional experiences of its Latino community. Last year, we initiated the Latine Education Advisory Council. This year, we will establish a Latinx Student Success team to address the recommendations of the report. We value partnerships involving DPS, the Latino community and external partners to create effective and equitable educational opportunities for students, families, employees and the community.
