Join an LSC Committee or Comment on LSC Bylaws
As a reminder- the LSC included a letter in the last mailing soliciting comments on our bylaws and asking if you’d like to participate in LSC committees. Please feel free to contact us with your participation.
The LSC is seeking your review and comment on two matters currently being considered- its bylaws and committees. The current bylaws are posted here. (Bylaws are the operating rules of the council.) Copies of the current bylaws are also available through the school office. Please forward any comments to , an email address that will go to all Drummond LSC members. You can also place comments in any LSC members’ mailbox. Please submit comments by July 28, 2008. With the expiration of the LSC’s previous term, each LSC committee must be reauthorized. Seven committees were proposed to help the LSC do its work for the coming year. Although the actual scope of what each committee will do has not yet been determined, here’s a list of the committees and a brief description of their area of work:
- Agenda(for LSC Meetings)
- Budget and Fundraising (reviews budget proposals and fundraising, including grants)
- After-school Program (advises the Council on after-school programming)
- Diversity and Outreach (organizes outreach on diversity issues)
- Parents of Differently-Abled Children (PODAC) (advises on special education)
- Principal Evaluation (gathers information on principal performance)
- School Improvement Plan (reports on and evaluates school improvement plan)
- Communications Committee (develops communication strategies for the LSC)
All Drummond parents, teachers and community members are eligible to serve on Local School Council Committees. We are soliciting interest in membership on the committees. If you have served on a committee in past years, we commend your efforts and encourage your continued service. If you have not previously served on an LSC committee and would like to work on one, please consider applying for a spot. Service on an LSC committee is a good way to get involved in your child’s education. We highly encourage you to participate. Please inform us of your interest in service on a committee to or place a note in any LSC member’s mailbox.
