Welcome to our school's Community Council. Our purpose is to address the academic needs of students at the local level by evaluating and providing opportunities and programs for their benefit. Community Councils play a very significant role in improving student achievement in each local school. By sharing their unique perspectives and expertise, parents, teachers, and administrators have a wonderful opportunity to address the critical academic needs of the school. The charge to analyze data, identify needs, set goals, and align resources—and then report back on progress– establishes Community Councils as providing front-line accountability to our school communities. Members of the Community Council usually serve for a term of two years. Positions are staggered to provide some openings each year. Candidates submit a form in August, and elections are held when multiple candidates are seeking the same position. These elections take place in early September. Thank you to the Armstrong Community Council for working together to support ALL students learning at the highest levels. Community members are invited to attend council meetings, but do not hold influence over council discussion points or decisions. If you have a concern for your Community Council, please reach out before-hand to one of the council members. Due to COVID 19, we are providing a ZOOM option. Both community and council members may attend virtually using this link.
