A LETTER FROM OUR SCHOOL ADVISORY BOARD PRESIDENT
Dear Families,
It’s my honor to serve as President of your School Advisory Committee (SAC) for the 2019-2020 school year. By way of introduction, I have been part of the St. Rose community since I was 8 years old. My children both attended ECC and are now in 6
th and 3
rd Grade. I’m blessed to see them learning and growing within the same loving and spiritual environment that I did years ago. Now more than ever, I’m motivated to help ensure this continues for my children along with yours. I joined SAC 3 years ago and would like to share more about it with you.
What is SAC?
SAC is a committee created to assist the pastor and principal to identify and recommend policy to guide the educational needs, goals, and aspirations of St. Rose of Lima Catholic School and the School Community. SAC is an advisory board meaning it does not create policies or curriculum but instead consults on them. This committee is currently 9 members strong with each serving a 3 year term. New members are added via a discernment process every February/March. SAC meetings occur on the first Tuesday of each month with the exception of July and December and are open to the community with advance notice.
For more information, including members of SAC, please visit the school website
here.
What are goals of the SAC for this school year?
-Review/Advise on the 5 year strategic plan
-Circulate a school-wide survey
-Establish a Junior High Marketing Committee
-Establish an Empowerment Marketing Committee
-Educate on and increase awareness of SAC via community involvement (i.e. Backpack Blessing)
What can the SAC do for you?
This committee serves as a liaison between you and the pastoral/school administration. You are encouraged to bring issues, questions, ideas and feedback to this committee by reaching out to the president or vice-president.
We want to hear from you!
Together we can bring awareness, strengthen communication and continue to build a community unlike any other.
Please look for me at the PTO meeting or at the
1st Annual Backpack Blessing hosted by SAC on September 8 (at 10am mass) and introduce yourself. I’d love to hear about the first week of school either in person or via email (
aschultea@gmail.com) and I look forward to getting to know your families.
All the best,
Adriane Schultea
