Charter Council
By law, a charter school must have an advisory
council made up of equal numbers of parents and
staff elected by their peers for rotating two-year
terms. The Charter Council will meet quarterly to
advise the director and staff on program direction.
According to our charter, the responsibilities of
the Council shall be to:
- Keep the lines of communication open between parents and staff
- Keep charter staff apprised of home schooling trends that are valuable to parents
- Give parents a forum to express their needs
- Help parents understand legal compliance issues
- Participate in program evaluation and goal setting
