Contact Council Member
Serving on the Community Council allows parents to directly influence the way LAND Trust funds are used during the school year, which can include programs, materials, and other education-based solutions.
Parents, please consider serving on the School Community Council. Parents act as the primary advocates for all children. By working as a group and understanding the legal responsibilities that lie with the principal, parents ensure the representation of achievement and student progress. Parents make up at least a two person majority of a school community council, and are often the driving force.
Parents will serve as chair and vice-chair or in at least one of the co-chair positions. It is important that parents on the council understand the responsibilities of the council, and are able to collaborate well with the other members of the council to affect meaningful school improvement for all children.
