  Shared Decision Making  
     
  The Shared Decision-Making Committee is an advisory group to the principal.  The committee is composed of eighteen members.  Six classroom teachers; three other professional staff members; one non-professional staff member; three parents; three community members; one business representative and the principal. 

The purpose of the committee is to set goals and objectives related to student achievement, develop the School Improvement Plan and to advise the principal on policies and procedures.  Decisions are reached by consensus. However, the principal has the authority to make the final decision on all matters. 

Meetings are held throughout the year and minutes are distributed to all parents and interested community members.
