Sorry for the late answer.
We recently rolled out a feature that lets you use some aspects of charts
directly from Google Sites (see
http://googledocs.blogspot.com/2011/09/visualize-your-data-with-charts-in.html
)
but we don't offer yet direct support for Dashboards.

To use dashboards you must be able to edit the html source of the page
where you're inserting the dashboard into, something that Sites does not
allow. So if you write an html page that contains a dashboard, you'd have
to host it somewhere else.

As a workaround, you could then later surface the dashboard inside a Google
Site using a gadget that lets you embed external content in a site, like
one of the many iframe gadgets available (menu "Insert > More Gadgets" when
you are editing a Site page).
