School Leadership Team (SLT)

The School Leadership Team is a collaborative team of parents, teachers, staff and the principal that is mandated by state law to play a significant role as an advisory panel in representing the school community. The School Leadership Team is responsible for working with the administration to determine the school’s annual goals and to develop the school’s Comprehensive Educational Plan for the year.

The SLT is made up of seven staff members (elected by the staff) and seven parents (elected by the parents), who are elected for two-year terms.

Parents’ membership on the School Leadership Team helps ensure that parents’ voice is represented in important decisions that affect teaching and learning in our school. The team provides an excellent forum for committed parents to make a valuable contribution to our school. Participation requires time, dedication, creativity, and hard work. In addition to the SLT mandate, over the years, our team has also chosen to work on issues such as student diversity, school safety, and fostering parent-teacher communication.

A full listing of this year’s members can be found on the SLT Members Page.
