Principal Advisory Council
A council functions as an advisory body, offering input to the local school principal.
We believe family and community engagement is critical to student and district success. The establishment of a Principal Advisory Council is intended to provide a means by which parents, community members, and school staff can work together to create a better understanding of and mutual respect for ideas focusing on school improvement.
