Southwest
is in the midst of a transformation.
We are now a Community Partnership School
(CPS), which is still developing governance and decision-making roles through
the formation of a specific committees and a governing body, the Leadership
Council (a new version of the old Site Council).
Please consider what might be your best leadership roles at the school. As you
may have heard, the Leadership Council is looking for new members, but maybe
more important are the committee positions, where the real discussions and
decision-making takes place before their recommendations are brought to the
Council for an up or down vote.
There are many facets of school life which will need committee involvement, and
even the Council doesn't know exactly what some of those committees are yet, as
this undertaking is still being created as they work through the CPS conversion
at their monthly meetings.
Leadership meetings are every second Monday of the month at 3:30 in the SW
Media Center, and open to the public. It can be an inconvenient time for some
parents, but is the most convenient for teachers, staff, and admin, who make up
a bulk of the Council. If you cannot attend these meetings, someone from the
PTSO will be attending, and we will have opportunity to meet evenings for
updates and next-step discussions.
Please email SWPTSO@gmail.com
to join our leadership team!
