We are looking for Stratton caregivers to serve on Stratton's School Council. The School Council's work may involve some of the following activities:

• Adopting educational goals for the school that are consistent with local educational policies and statewide student performance standards
• Identifying the educational needs of students attending the school

• Reviewing the annual school building budget
• Formulating a school improvement plan

For the remainder of this year, Stratton's School Council will be analyzing Stratton's student and family Panorama data and creating an action plan. Please send me an email if you are interested in participating. We will meet via Zoom in the afternoons.
