WANTED......Site Council Members for the 2014-15 school year! Three of our recent council members had students move on to 6th grade, and we are now needing additional parents to join us. Please consider this opportunity to become more involved with your child's school.
What does Site Council do.....our main purpose is to act as a liaison between our PR school community and the school as we evaluate our school-site performance goals and objectives. Typically, it is being informed of more of the detailed operations of Pleasant Ridge and the School Improvement Process. In year's past, I have been able to share and gather information regarding our school to assist in the decision making process, such as construction & safety issues. Our Site Council originally assisted in the development of our now very successful WatchDOGS program, and were instrumental in the transition of our grade 6 students to the Middle School. Our School Site Councils were also an avenue that the district sought feedback regarding the recent Bond 2013 needs and components, and gained important insight into our patron's priorities. The PR Site Council has also assisted with school celebrations, and then at other times, I have even used our members to seek input in making decisions that effect our school community. This year, one of our focuses will be working to inform our community of the A.L.I.C.E. safety protocol.
Our Site Council meets typically between 4-6 times a school year, and our meetings last approximately 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours at the most. If you would like to know more, please don't hesitate to let me know and I can contact you personally. You can email me @ kactkinsonpr@olatheschools.org or call @ 780-7590.
I look forward to hearing from you!
Krystal Actkinson, Principal
