Composition of Council

Each school community council shall consist of school employees (including the school’s principal) and parents of students who are attending the school.

The recommended composition of school community councils for high schools is six (6) parent members and four (4) school employee members (including the principal). The recommended composition of school community councils for other schools is four (4) parent members and two (2) employee members (including the principal). The school community council is not required to have the recommended composition and can by majority vote of a quorum of the council determine how many members the council will have, provided that there are at least two (2) school employee members and there are at least two (2) more parent members than school employee members.

The number of parent members of a school community council who are not educators employed by the school district shall exceed the number of parent members who are educators employed by the school district. If, after an election, the number of parent members who are not educators employed by the school district does not exceed the number of parent members who are educators employed by the school district, the parent members of the school community council shall appoint one or more parent members to the school community council so that the number of parent members who are not educators employed by the school district exceeds the number of parent members who are educators employed by the school district.

Each community council shall elect a chair from its parent members and a vice chair from its parent members or school employee members other than the principal.

Notice of Available Community Council Position

At least 10 days before the date of a community council election, the principal of the school, or the principal’s designee, shall provide notice to each school employee or parent of the opportunity to vote in, and run as a candidate in, the election. The notice shall include:

1. the dates, times, and location of the election;
2. a list of council positions that are up for election;
3. instructions for becoming a candidate for a community council position;
4. the location where a ballot may be cast; and
5. the means by which a ballot may be cast, whether in person, by mail, or by electronic transfer.

At least once per year, on or before October 20, the principal shall post on the school website an invitation to parents to serve on the school community council, the dollar amount the school receives each year from that program, a copy or link to the school’s current Teacher and Student Success Plan, approved minutes of the school’s council meetings for at least a year, a proposed council meeting schedule for the year; a means to directly contact the members of the school community council; a copy of or a link to the school’s plan or final report for the most recent two years, consistent with Utah Code § 53G-7-1206; and a copy of or link to the school’s current year plan.

Mokyklos darbuotojų narių atranka

Direktorius yra ex officio narys su visomis balsavimo teisėmis. Mokyklos administratorius negali būti mokyklos bendruomenės tarybos pirmininku ar pirmininko pavaduotoju.

Employee members shall be elected by secret ballot by a majority vote of the school employees. The employee member election shall be held in the same season as the election for parent or guardian members. The principal, or the principal’s designee, shall oversee the elections. Results of the election shall be made available to the public upon request.

Jei darbuotojų kandidatų skaičius yra mažesnis arba lygus laisvų darbuotojų pareigybių skaičiui, rinkimų rengti nereikia.

Jei po rinkimų arba po paskyrimo, kai rinkimų nereikia, darbuotojo vieta taryboje lieka neužimta, kiti tarybos nariai darbuotojai paskiria darbuotoją į šią vietą.

Selection of Parent Members

Parent members shall be elected by secret ballot by a majority vote of those voting in an election held at the school. Only parents of students attending the school are eligible to vote in this election. However, when elections are held in the spring, parents of students who will be attending the school in the fall are eligible to vote and to be candidates. Ballots cast in this election shall be deposited in a secure ballot box.

If the number of parent candidates is less than or equal to the number of open parent positions, no election is required.

School community councils may establish procedures that allow for ballots to be clearly marked and mailed to the school in the case of geography or school distances that would otherwise discourage parent participation. Hand-delivered or mailed ballots shall meet the same timelines for voters voting in person. Schools may allow parents to vote by electronic ballot through a District-approved election process consistent with this policy. If a school allows voting by electronic means, the opportunity shall be clearly explained on the school’s website including:

1. directions for electronic voting;
2. security provisions for electronic voting;
3. a statement to parents and community members that violations of a school’s voting procedures may disqualify a parent’s vote or invalidate an election, or both.

The principal, or the principal’s designee, shall oversee the elections. Results of the election shall be made available to the public upon request. Following the election, the principal shall enter and electronically sign a principal’s assurance on the School LAND Trust website, affirming the school community council’s election, that unfilled positions were filled by appointment as necessary (consistent with Utah Code § 53G-7-1202(5)), and that the council’s bylaws or procedures comply with law.

Any parent who qualifies to be a candidate may file or declare himself or herself as a candidate for election to the council. An individual qualifies to be a candidate if she or he is the parent of a student who will be enrolled at the school during the parent’s term of office; however, if the parent is also an educator employed at the school, the parent is not eligible to be a “parent” candidate or member of the council.

The election for the parent members shall be held in the spring or in the fall, as determined by each school’s principal. However, once the election season has been determined, it must remain the same for at least four years before it can be changed.

Spring elections for parent members shall be scheduled by the principal on a date or dates such that the election is completed before the last week of school. For spring elections, the school community council shall attempt to notify the parents of incoming students of the opportunity to run for the council and shall provide those parents with the opportunity to vote in the election.

Fall elections for parent members shall be scheduled by the principal on a date or dates near the beginning of the school year.

If a parent position on the council remains unfilled following an election or after appointment when no election is required, the other parent members of the council shall appoint a parent who meets the above qualifications to fill the position.

Kadencija

Elected or appointed members of the council shall serve a two (2) year term beginning either the first day of the school year (for spring elections) or on November 1 (for fall elections). However, terms shall be staggered so that no more than approximately half of council members stand for election in any one year. A member’s term shall be extended as needed until his or her replacement’s term begins (for example, to avoid a gap that would result from a shift from one election season to the other). A school community council member may serve successive terms so long as the member continues to meet the eligibility requirements to be a parent member or an employee member. If a change to a statute or regulation affects the composition of the council, a council member who was elected or appointed before the change may complete the term to which she or he was elected.

Updating Council Membership

By or before October 20 of each year, the principal shall enter the names of the council members on the state School LAND Trust Program website.

Tarybų pareigos

Each school community council shall advise and make recommendations to the school, school district administrators, and the local school board regarding the school and its programs, school district programs, and other issues relating to the community environment for students. School community councils shall report on a plan at least annually to the Board and shall cooperate with State Board of Education monitoring and audits. Councils may also advise and inform the Board and other members of the school community regarding the uses of School LAND Trust Program funds. They shall also encourage participation on the council and may recruit potential applicants to apply for open council positions. Councils shall establish clear written procedures which govern removal from office of members who move away or who consistently do not attend meetings, as well as additional clarifications to assist in the efficient operation of the council consistent with the law and with Board rule.

(“Safety principles” means safety principles that, when incorporated into programs and resources, impact academic achievement by strengthening a safe and wholesome learning environment, including continual efforts for safe technology utilization and digital citizenship.) To fulfill these duties, a school community council may create a subcommittee and may also partner with one or more non-profit organizations.

To assist the community council in fulfilling these responsibilities, the principal shall annually provide the council with a report which summarizes the current safety principles and practices used by the District and school regarding technology and digital citizenship, including (1) information on internet filtering protocols for school and District devices which access the internet, (2) instructional practices, monitoring, and reporting procedures, and (3) and required internet safety training provided to a student and parent by the school or the District.

The school shall also publicize to its patrons and the general public how the School LAND Trust funds were used to implement a component of the teacher and student success plan and the results of those efforts. The principal shall ensure that the school website fully communicates how parents can directly influence expenditure of School LAND Trust Program funds and includes the dollar amount of funds received by the school each year. Also, the school shall prepare and post on the state School LAND Trust Program website an annual report before the council submits a plan for the following year which details the use of School LAND Trust funds and which assesses the results obtained from the use of those funds. (To assist with this annual report, the district shall record expenditures of School LAND Trust Program funds through a financial reporting system identified by the State Board of Education.) A summary of this report shall be provided to parents or guardians of students who attend the school.

The council shall create and vote to adopt a LAND trust plan in a meeting of the school community council at which a quorum is present.
