Principal Notes:  Interested in being more involved in the operational side of Asbury? The CSC (collaborative school committee) will be looking for 3 or more parents to join us for the 19/20 school year. The CSC provides guidance and insight to school wide decisions regarding budget, personnel, and our Unified Improvement Plan. Please email alicia_fajohn@dpsk12.org if you are interested!

Have a classroom/teacher request? Here is Asbury’s policy for teacher requests: Parents may not request a specific teacher assignment. You may want to share information that might help us make classroom assignments.  The information about a student should address educational needs (e.g., learning style, interests, areas of concern, strengths). Please email these requests to alicia_fajohn@dpsk12.org .
