Thank A School Board Member Today

 


Thank a school board member today!

In January, the Vermont legislature will pass a resolution declaring January as School Board Recognition Month. “This is a time to promote awareness and understanding of the important work performed by school board members,” said Sue Ceglowski, Executive Director of the Vermont School Boards Association. The Champlain Valley School District is joining all public school districts across the state to celebrate School Board Recognition Month to honor local board members for their commitment to CVSD and its children.

It takes strong schools to build a strong community, and these men and women devote countless hours to making sure our schools are helping every child learn at a higher level. They make the tough decisions every month and spend many hours studying education issues and regulations in order to provide the kind of accountability our citizens expect.

The key work of school boards is to raise student achievement by:

  • Creating a shared vision for the future of education
  • Setting the direction of the school district to achieve the highest student performance
  • Providing accountability for student achievement results
  • Developing a budget that aligns district resources to improve achievement
  • Supporting a healthy school district culture in which to work and to learn

School board members give citizens of CVSD a voice in education decision-making. Even though we make a special effort to show our appreciation in January, their contribution is a year-round commitment.
