Let’s say “thank you” to those who participate in what is perhaps the purest form of grassroots democratic principles upon which our republic was founded: our School Board Members. School board members establish a vision for the education program, design a structure to achieve that vision, ensure schools are accountable to the community, and strongly advocate continuous improvement in student learning. This job entails an endless string of meetings and school functions; reams of reports, agendas, proposals, and other information to read and study; and a host of difficult decisions to make. Board members must pull together as a team toward the common goal of helping students achieve.
By setting high expectations for student achievement, supporting successful teaching and learning, and linking schools with their communities, trustees empower students with the knowledge and skills they need to become productive, responsible citizens. Here at Crestwood, we are very fortunate to have a committed and knowledgeable board of trustees. They go above and beyond to help make sure our schools have the best administrators, staff, and curriculum. Each board member has proven time and again how dedicated they are to the community and how loyal they are to their neighbors.
Let’s all take time this month to acknowledge the important contributions our school board members make all year long!
