Community Council Elections

School Community Councils are elected parent/guardian and employee representatives who work together with the
Principal to increase student achievement. By law, the Council is responsible to review school data and develop plans
for school improvement. Councils also allocate the LAND Trust funds to assist the school in reaching achievement
goals. Please see the Granite District web page for more information regarding the roles and responsibilities of
Community Councils (www.graniteschools.org)
Parents elect parent representatives and employees elect employees for two-year terms. To be eligible, a parent
must have a student enrolled in the school for at least one of the years and may not be a contract employee at the
school. We invite you to become involved in your school’s Community Council by declaring your candidacy. Please
return the bottom portion of this form to your school’s principal by 3 p.m. on September 9, 2022.
