| Student Advisory Council Our District recently announced that we are in the process of forming a County Administrator’s Student Advisory Council, where the purpose is to elevate student voices, by providing them with opportunities to share their feedback, insight and ideas with District leadership and external stakeholders. We want to increase students’ involvement in critical conversations so that they can provide useful and actionable feedback to improve experiences for our students. Topics during the Student Advisory Council may include, but are not limited to, equity, social justice, instructional strategies and supports, social and emotional wellbeing, and extracurricular activities. For additional information about the Student Advisory Council, including eligibility requirements, please click here. Students should submit their applications no later than 5:00 p.m. on September 30th.
