Please join us for the first Slate Valley Community Advisory Council meeting of the 2024-25 school year. The meeting will take place on September 3, 2024 at 5:45 PM in the Central Office conference room located at FHUMHS. See the agenda at https://www.slatevalleyunified.org/page/slate-valley-community-advisory-council
The Community Advisory Council to the Superintendent (CAC) is composed of community representatives from each town/school. They meet with the Superintendent and other district staff on a monthly basis during the school year. Members work together to:
-Identify common needs and goals among the guardians/community members of students enrolled in SVUUSD Schools and facilitate strategies to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of their respective school organizations.
-Provide the superintendent with feedback and insight from the community perspective on school process, policies and initiatives to ensure that the needs of parents and their families are included as decisions are made in the district.
-Bring to the superintendent's attention existing and emerging issues expressed by guardians at the school they represent.
-Serve as an advisory, not a decision-making body, that makes recommendations, encourages brainstorming and provides opportunities for community involvement on committees and task forces.
-Facilitate communication between and among the guardians and SVUUSD organizations from different schools and serve as a forum for sharing innovations and best practices from around the district.
When: Sep 3, 2024, 5:45 to 6:45 PM
Where: Central Office Conference Room at Fair Haven Union Middle & High School, Mechanic Street, Fair Haven, VT
All are Welcome! We hope to see you there!
