27J seeks members for committee

Parents and community members, interested in School District 27J and making improvements to education, are invited to serve on the District Accountability Committee for the 2013-14 school year.

The committee, comprised of parents, community members and district staff, provides input to schools in their improvement planning process through state-mandated Unified Improvement Plans. The committee also reviews charter school applications and renewals, provides big picture perspectives on the budget, and other special projects. School District 27J seeks to have a consistent representative from each school serve on the committee.

Meetings are held 6-7:30 p.m., the third Monday of each month at the Educational Services Center, 18551 East 160th Ave., Brighton. Dinner is provided.

If you are interested in serving on the committee, contact Linda Nowak at 303-655-2957 or lnowak@sd27j.org.
