Dear Parents,

Welcome to our school from the Board of Directors!

Our Board is composed of the children’s parents and we work collaboratively with the Director and a paid Bookkeeper to keep the school running smoothly. There are 5 chair positions available or a parent can become a voting member without holding any specific position. We welcome everyone who is interested and encourage parents to become members because we think that parents will represent the children’s interest better than anybody else. We want to encourage increased parent input to the board and the decision making process while making sure that issues related to school structure are addressed in an open meeting format. In addition, if you have concerns you would like us to address, just email the Clerk or any Board Member and we are happy to put it on the agenda for our next board meeting. We meet on the third Thursday of every month from 9:15 to 11:00; all are welcome!

Any feedback provided is also welcome. Please feel free to contact one of us with your questions, suggestions or concerns. If it is in direct relation to your child and how he/she is doing at school, contact Jackie. If it has something to do with Volunteering, Snack, Work hours, etc. contact the Co-Op Chair directly.

We are always looking for help, advice, ideas, anything to help make things run smoother for you or for your child.

We hope you and your child have a wonderful year here! We are glad to be here to help!

Jamie, Christie, Beth, Trevor, Barbara, and Jackie
