PAC, or Parent Advisory Council, exists to build and promote the capacity of parents of students participating in Title I programs to partner with their children’s schools in the education of their children. PAC’s main responsibilities are to advise the principal on the use of Title I parent & family engagement funds as well as to serve as a bridge between all school parents and the school administration. We received $848.40 in PAC funds for the 2019-2020 school year.
On Thursday, October 10, 2019, I hosted the Title I PAC Organizational Committee Meeting. In this meeting, we decided on the members and meeting dates, and times. Please see the information below:
The members of the Suder PAC are as follows:
- Chairperson: Allen Curry
- Vice-Chairperson: Tlaloe Rodriguez
- Secretary: Charles Alley
- Outreach Coordinator: Ortabia Townsend
PAC Meetings will take place on the first Tuesday of each month at 6:00pm.
If you are interested in submitting a proposal on how to spend the PAC funds, you can do so using the link below.

Starting this school year, CPS established the
Student Rights & Responsibilities
which includes the CPS student-created “Bill of Rights” along with the “Student Code of Conduct”. In alignment with our school’s value around cultivating student agency, we will establish the
Suder Student Council
led by Ms. Hogan this school year. Elementary 2 and Middle School Students have the opportunity to run for the Suder Student Council Executive Board and must complete the application by October 16, 2019. Third graders in Elementary 1 and students in Elementary 2/Middle School will also have the opportunity to serve as classroom representatives.
The Suder Student Council will meet bi-weekly from 9:00am-9:30am. Some of the work that the Suder Student Council will engage in will be guided by the WE Schools Kit. The WE School Kit is a unique, experimental service-learning program that challenges young people to identify the local and global issues that spark their passion and empowers them with the tools they need to take action.
Application Process:
- Submit a signed permission form
- Collect signed recommendations from three different Suder Montessori staff
- Write a typed speech of approximately three minutes in length
- Make two campaign posters
Reach out to Ms. Hogan if you have any questions!
REMINDER: Applications are due Wednesday, October 16, 2019

In order to establish and maintain clear communication with families, we have created the Suder Family Handbook, which has information about the school and its operations, policies, and procedures. Refer to this handbook often as it provides important information for families. We hope that this handbook provides you with a clear understanding of our school-wide expectations, programs, and policies.

Interested in providing a little Staff Sunshine?
|
On Mondays, we have surprises for our staff in the teacher’s lounge. It can be anything from popcorn, a candy “bar,” croissants, donuts, tea, soup, or anything in a crockpot. Don’t have time to set it up in the morning? Don’t worry about it- FOS will set it up. All you have to do is drop it off in the office at drop-off.
|
|
Parents like to party. So, FOS has created “Parent Parties” on every first Thursday of each month. We will alternate from a morning party to after school party and the parties will take place in the new FOS room after it is renovated. We hope to continue to build our community through these parties. Expect food, surprises, and community. Stay tuned for more info.
Join us for a Parent Mixer at Grand Central Brewery, 6-8pm. Enjoy Pizza on FOS and try out some new beers from our neighbors! Street parking is available.
