EC- Educator Advisory Membership Call

 This month EAC EC-5 is looking to fill and get more shared decision making voices on our council.  This council is the main discussion and decision making body for our Elementary Schools.  It is essential to have all schools and grade levels as part of the process in discussion.  We are still in need of a few seats to be sure all voices are heard.  If you have an interest please contact Sarah Mumm, Rob Gardner or Cindy Babich to become a member.  The following are categories and seats that we are still in need of:

 Exploratory
