Frequently Asked Questions/Answers about Student Services
-
Who do I contact if I want my organization to partner with the district and/or school?
Contact Student Services to set up a meeting to discuss a possible partnership. If the program being suggested aligns with the goals of the District Recovery Plan then the organization will have to present the program at the Education Agenda Team. If the program is approved an MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) would need to be completed. Our solicitor would review the MOU. The group/organization would be invited to present at the School Board meeting. The School Board approves or denies all MOU’s and partnerships.
