Parents are encouraged to get involved at Desert Foothills by becoming a member of the Site Council. Meetings are held the third Wednesday of each month at 4:45 p.m. in the Office Conference room. Parents are always welcome to attend. The site council receives information about the school budget, programs, and challenges that face the school. The Council's duties include the planning of new facilities, the hiring of the principal and assistant principal and the responsibility for approving the use of undesignated tax credit funds.
