Parent Committees

School Site Council- This group of elected members, half parents and half school staff members, serve as an advisory committee with regard to curriculum, budget, and extra-curricular activities. The elected members meet once a month; all parents are invited to attend.

Parent Club - This group of parents and guardians has recently been formed. since this group is incipient, we are planning to share a surveying process to ascertain our parents needs, particularly as they support our students. Currently, Sherwood school partners with our migrant program to provide services to parents on campus. With the re-opening of the public library as a parent center, classes in computing, English and physical fitness are available to parents at Sherwood. Our goal is to educate and empower our parents to become active, participating members of the Sherwood School community.

English Language Learners Advisory Committee -- Our parents have voted to combine this vital committee with our School Site Council. Our elected ELAC representative attends monthly DELAC meetings which have formal agendas to discuss site-based and district-wide issues that affect English learners. Our representative serves as an advisor to the SSC.

Migrant Parent Committee -- Our parents have voted to also combine this committee with our School Site Council. Issues impacting our migrant learner population are open for discussion and recommendation during our regular SSC meetings. One parent is our representative to SSC and also attends district MAC meetings.
