Beverly Cleary School (BCS) adult family members need to elect a couple of Adult Family Representatives (AFRs) to the school Site Council.
What will Site Council do this year?
The purpose of the Site Council is to increase BCS student achievement.
The Site Council will work on the BCS school improvement plan, a school satisfaction survey, and will provide valuable feedback to Principal Teri Geist.
Who serves on Site Council?
Site Council has a balanced membership of teachers, classified staff, adult family representatives and a community member.
How often does Site Council meet?
Site Council meets during the school year for an hour or so about once a month.
Should I nominate myself or someone else for Site Council?
Site Council is looking for adult family representatives who have experience with or skills that would support our work. We hope to maintain a balance between the two sites, e.g., have a rep with a student at the Hollyrood site and a rep with a student at the Fernwood site (if you have a student at both sites, that makes it easy). Some work outside of meetings is to be expected.
How do I nominate someone (including myself)?
Please submit a brief statement of nomination (moderately sized paragraph) at either site office no later than Monday, November 16. Please identify which site your student attends and why you are a good choice for Site Council. A survey with the nominating blurbs and a ballot will be posted on this website and will be open through Friday, November 20. We will then tally up the votes.
Who should I check in with about any of this?
Feel free to contact returning Site Council members with questions. Current co-chair contact information: Rob Gibson and Dana Barbarick.
