The Weber Compact for Learning Committee

 

In 1994, The New York State Education Department called upon all school districts to establish "Compact for Learning" committees at each school within a district.  The purpose of the Compact Committee is to allow for local site-based planning and shared decision-making around such issues as budgets, school climate, cultural arts, homework, building & facilities, and home & school communication.  This is to be accomplished by a combined group of faculty, administrators, and parents. Weber's 10 member Compact Committee consists of Weber’s principal, four teachers, one support staff member, and four parents.  Three of these parents are volunteers from our Weber parent body.  The Executive Board of the Weber HSA represents the fourth parent position.

 

The Compact Committee meets once a month usually after school in the Weber Principal’s Office, on a weekday schedule determined at the beginning of the school year. Parent members are expected to give reports at HSA meetings and provide notes for inclusion in the Weber Bulletin Board newsletter.

 

The Compact Committee parent representatives for the current school year are:

 

Lisa Epstein, Lisa Marschall, Paula Waskover, and Emily Beys.
