School Site Council

Country Lane
School Site Council The purpose of a School Site Council (SSC) is to develop a proposed Single Plan for Student Achievement and thereafter submit the plan to the School Board, for approval. Upon approval, the SSC monitors the implementation of the Single Plan. The Education Code requires that each year Country Lane’s parents vote-in parent members. The Council meets four times a year (usually) Tuesdays, from 3-4:15pm, at the media center. This year the Country Lane SSC is looking for two parent-members to serve for a period of two years. If interested please send your name and contact information to Denise Roue at denise@theroues.com by Sept 20, 2013.

Call Out for Science Camp Chaperones

September is our recruiting month for Science Camp!  If you would like a week away from your usual schedule, no cooking, no carpooling,.... then I have an offer for you.  Enjoy a beautiful week along the Marin Coast with 120 kids and 5 lovely teachers! For details of parent responsibilities, go to www.naturebridge.org.  I am happy to answer any questions you may have. The cost is $160 (and you get a cool t-shirt!). We will have a lottery in October for our lucky volunteers.  We need 2 moms and 2 dads for each classroom.
