Our Committees
An adult member from each family is required to serve on a committee or as a
member of our Board of Directors. A
committee sign-up sheet will be available at the Orientation Meeting in August. It is
required that all committees complete their responsibilities throughout the
school year as needed so that an undue burden is not put on other parents to
complete those tasks.

term is from June - May and they work together to organize all aspects of the
operation of the school. The five positions include: President,
