What is IDAC?
Intercultural Diversity Advisory Council (IDAC) draws members from parents to represent our school at district level climate assessment/problem-solving meetings. The primary purpose of the Intercultural Diversity Advisory Council (IDAC), originally formed in 1988 as the Intercultural Advisory Council, is to assist in the formation and review of policies that assure non-discriminatory practices in all operational areas of the Clovis Unified School District. Its further mission is to assist in improving the cultural environment of the District.

    Positivity Project (P2) Model


    The model below explains the WHY behind the WHAT. At Reagan, we believe in developing positive relationships with our students. At Reagan we provide weekly/ daily lessons and activities around a focused character strength. This will allow students to learn about the character strength, what it looks like and how to further develop the strength within us. In addition, we have included the P2 Family lessons in each PAW Prints Newsletter to help our T-Wolf Families have great conversations about the character strength they are learning about in school!
