They engage in discussions about the program in which their students are participating, requirements, and ways in which parents can positively influence the development and success of their children at the middle school level. They make recommendations about the interventions the school can offer students and suggest program modifications to improve student performance and success. These parents meet monthly to discuss matters of common concern. Special events, including the International Dinner and Awards Ceremony, are also planned and sponsored by the group. Specific dates for meetings are on the school calendar.
All interested parents are welcome.
The School Site Council consists of a group of students, parents, and certificated and classified school personnel who meet to discuss, make recommendations, and give input on the development, implementation, and evaluation of the school improvement plan. This group meets at least quarterly, as listed on the calendar. The members of the general school community and parent community are elected by the stakeholders. Persons interested in participating on this council are asked to contact the principal for more information or to have their name placed in nomination. Members are elected in the fall, but replacements are often needed during the year for a variety of reasons.
