And I'd be interested in curriculum. May I ask, what is curriculum
documentation?
Thanks,

Hi Sabine,
I would be interested in the policy committee!
Thanks,

Dear Teachers, Families and Friends:
I am reaching out with a separate note to ask you all to consider volunteering
for school governance committees.
The committees are chaired by board members but open to all. They are the place
where a lot of the actual planning and governance prep work are carried out;
committees bring their ideas and recommendations back to the board for
voting/action. Ideally, not just board members, teachers, and staff serve on
these board sub-committees - parents and school community members are a welcome
*and much-needed* addition.
I volunteered for the policy committee this spring and we've been working on
several documents the school is required to have so as to make these documents
a good fit for the school's unique culture as well as ensure compliance with
all regulations. The policy committee currently has shrunk to two of us, with
one hopeful. We have space to grow! Consider joining us if you are interested
in educational policy in general and school governance/policy work for
Southside in particular.
That said, other committees will also need new volunteer members - so if you
are interested in getting involved with fundraising, general planning,
curriculum documentation, etc., you would be a great asset to other committees,
also. Please consider volunteering! School governance, too, needs you!!
What is the time/energy commitment, you ask? A monthly meeting, an hour or two
in length, at most, and some committee "homework" (type of work that needs to
get done depends on committee).
Again, this is NOT the same as serving on the board. Anyone with skills or
interests that map to the work that needs to be done in the sub-committees will
be a wonderful and much-appreciated addition.
Hope that some of you guys consider joining up!
-Sabine
