Family Involvement

Did you know District 11 schools work hard to build strong relationships between home and school? Most all D11 schools have a Family Involvement Toolkit Coach, or F.I.T. Coach who designs plans throughout the school year to increase family involvement. Be part of your school’s community to increase family involvement by joining the PTA, PTO, F.I.T. planning, or a variety of other opportunities. Together we all help our students succeed! For more information on the Family Involvement Toolkit please click on the link below.

Military Families

Doherty High School proudly supports its strong connection to military families in Colorado Springs through dedicated efforts like our military liaisons, Elisa Villarruel and Lindsay Zandarski, who provide invaluable resources and support. Throughout the year, we actively recognize and celebrate the contributions of military families. most notably during the Month of the Military Child we honor our military connected students at home games, tied purple ribbons around our trees, and conducted a spirit week. Our annual Veterans Day assembly serves as a powerful tribute to honor the service and sacrifice of veterans within our community. Furthermore, Doherty High School participates in Wreaths Across America, with students and staff joining together to lay wreaths at local cemeteries, ensuring that the memory of our fallen heroes is kept alive.
