Seeking School Council Members 2019-2020


Wilmington Public Schools
Shawsheen Elementary School
298 Shawsheen Ave

Dear Parent and Guardians:


The Massachusetts Education Reform Act provides an opportunity for parents, teachers, and administrators to work together on a School Advisory Council.  Some of the main areas of responsibility for school advisory councils have included adopting educational goals, identifying the educational needs of students, reviewing the annual building budget, revising student handbooks, and creating a school improvement plan.

At this time I am asking for your interest in serving on the council for this school year 2019-2020. In order to create parity, the number of parents serving on the council will be equal to the number of teachers and administrators who will serve. I am looking for two parents or guardians at this time.

For your information, the School Advisory Council meetings are conducted once a month after school. Meetings start at 3:00 p.m. Members are typically asked to serve a two-year term. If you are interested, please send me a letter of interest via email or mail and I will get back to you.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,


Lisa King
Principal
