The
Weber Compact for Learning
Committee needs you!
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 selected 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.
This
year we have 3 (three) parent positions open.
The positions are for a two-year term, except for those parents whose
child will be in the eighth grade. (If an 8th grade parent is selected,
another parent may serve to fill the second year of that term.) If you are
interested in serving on Weber's Compact Committee, please submit the Nominee
Information Form below in
the enclosed envelope (addressed to Mary Alice Kohs) by July 1, 2010. A Nominating Committee will meet in July, 2010
to consider all the candidates, and you will be notified of the results in
August, 2010.

you have any questions, please contact Weber HSA Co-Presidents:
