Derby Public Schools is hosting a Community Chit Chat on January 30 at 6:30AM. This is an excellent opportunity to visit with the Board of Education and school district leadership.

Families, staff and the community have the opportunity to complete an online form by Jan. 28 to share questions or thoughts for consideration regarding the state’s Blue Ribbon Task Force on Student Screen Time recommendations. On Thursday, January 30, at 5:30PM, Derby Public Schools will host a Board of Education Workshop on this topic.

Brainfuse is partnering with Derby Public Schools to provide high-dose online tutoring at no cost to families. Brainfuse is perfect for students who are ready to strengthen their academic skills in math or reading. This program is open to students in grades 2-10.

We encourage families to attend conferences at their child’s school to stay connected and involved in their education, which plays a key role in supporting student success.

Derby Public Schools is participating in our 10th Annual Community Food Drive to benefit Derby Community Family Services, which runs the Derby Food Bank.

McConnell AFB and Derby Public Schools collaborate through a Military-Connected Educational Partnership Council, which meets quarterly, followed by an open forum for military-connected parents to address the council.

We are proud to share that Derby High School's Panther Pals Program was selected for the Kansas Association of School Boards (KASB) Conference District Showcase in Wichita. Selected districts receive a $250 program donation to support their initiatives.

Congratulations to Heather Bohaty, Superintendent of Schools, on being named a finalist for 2025 Kansas Superintendent of the Year!
