Meeting Agendas - 2022-23
Election Procedures
Every year, about half of the seats on the council are up for reelection. All parents with students attending our school are invited to join the council in August. Parents can not work more than six hours at the school and hold a parent position on the council. If more parents would like to be on the council than there are spots, an election is held. Teachers nominate their peers to fill open teacher positions on the council. If a parent or teacher leaves the council before the end of their term, the parent group or teacher group of the council selects a parent/teacher to fill the spot. Council members serve for two years. Members may serve up to three consecutive terms. If you are interested in serving on the council please contact the front office prior to Back to School Night each year.

In the event there is a tie vote in an election, the principal shall flip a coin to determine the outcome.
