Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council - The first meeting of the 2022-2023 Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council was held on Wednesday, November 30, 2022 and, after meeting virtually for two years, we are happy to announce that we were able to meet in person! The group consists of approximately 40 students grades 5-12 that meet three to four times a year to discuss school district information, events, activities, etc. During this time, we build community and center student voice and experience. At the last meeting, students participated in a robust conversation about the 2023-24 and 2024-25 school year calendars. Representation on the Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council continues from fifth grade all the way to high school graduation.
