Get Involved

Do you want to have greater input as to how we use our resources (people, funds, and time) or greater insight into the vision and direction of Municipal Elementary? Do you want to take a more active role in our school community? Then join our Community Council where parents, staff, and other community members work together to make this the best school possible for our children.

Here are some facts about the School Community Council:

The Council is made up of parents, teachers, and the school principal
The school receives an annual dividend from the school trust lands and our council decides how these funds will be used.
Member terms are for two years (and they can be re-elected three times)
Members are responsible for developing the School Improvement Plan, School LAND Trust Plan, Safety Plan, Reading Achievement etc.
Council members meet 4-5 times during the school year
If you are interested in getting involved with the Community Council, please contact the office.

Electronic Voting:
Every fall when school starts information for joining our community council is sent out to parents. A nomination period where those interested in serving on the council are invited to fill out a nomination form. Once the nomination period is over, the electronic election process begins. During this week-long voting period (usually in September), an electronic ballot is sent to all parents and staff and will be available on our website during the election dates.
