LES Community Council Agenda April 14, 2020

Community Council Agenda April 14, 2020

Parents make a difference. Parents serving on the LES Community Council decide how to spend money allocated from the Land Trust Funds of Utah. We are allocated $101,129 in funds for next year and these funds can only be allocated by parent input, so your voice matters.

School Community Council members are often willing volunteers who care about the success of students and overall school improvement. In the process of encouraging parents and school employees to participate on the School Community Council, the expectations or job descriptions of Council members ​may be​ described here...​http://www.schoollandtrust.org/parents-and-councils/job-descriptions
