    We should have 4 parents, the principal, and one teacher. Last year we had Melisa, Kendal, Sara, and Julie. Andrea was a secretary. Typically people serve for 2 years, there are a couple vacancies based on that number. The available seats need to be open for 10 days to allow for anyone interested to participate. Mr. Robins will open those up tomorrow September 12. Insights shared to SCC have been very helpful and useful information to have.

    It may be helpful to include basic information about the obligations of being on SCC when sending out information and soliciting candidates.
