The job of the School Council is to advise the Principal on budget, school improvement plans, and other issues of general interest. The term of office is two years, with a second 2-year term allowed. Parents/guardian members are expected to attend meetings one Tuesday of each month during the school year (October-June). Meetings are in the Faculty Dining Room from 4:30 to 6:00pm. We need two parents to join the current parent representatives: Nancy Bauer (2015), Jodi Detjen (2016), Sue Flicop (2015), Linda Green (2015), and Sue Kirshenbaum (2015). We offer a grateful thank you to Michael Oshins whose term (and time at South) ends this year.
Candidates should submit a brief statement (250 words or less) which should address the following:
- Identify the elementary and middle school attended by your NSHS student
- Particular interest, background, skills and expertise which have prepared you for the role
- Qualities you would bring to the School Council
Please submit statements to info@newtonsouthptso.org by 5:00pm on May 30, 2014. Elections will be held via email from June 2 to June 13 at 12:00 noon.
