Dripping Springs ISD values strong communication with members of the Dripping Springs community, including parents and other district stakeholders. This priority was emphasized in the 2016-21 Strategic Plan, making up a major part of the "Village" Section.

Some methods used to strengthen and promote communication include:

• electronic newsletters
• community forums
• information shared with community groups
• discussion with committees
• small-group discussions
• notification system for families
• printed reports
• podcasts and videos
• special events highlighting the district and its schools
• social media
• DSISD website
• participation in community events like Leadership Dripping Springs
• partnerships with community organizations

In addition to coordinating many of these communication methods, the Communications Department serves as the point of contact for all media requests.
