School Leadership Team

About SLT

The School Leadership Team (SLT) is a collaborative team of parents and teachers and the principal that is mandated by state law to play a significant role as an advisory panel in representing the school community. The SLT helps create structures for school-based decision-making, develops school-based educational policies and ensures resources are aligned to implement those policies. The SLT writes and reviews the school’s Comprehensive Education Plan (CEP). Members are elected for two year terms on a staggered basis. Visitors are welcome to all meetings.
