ELAC - English Learners Advisory Committee

ELAC Meeting, we will be meeting in the MPR (Multipurpose Room).

ELAC (English Learners Advisory Committee) is a meeting place that parents can use as a platform to express their concerns and ideas to both the school and the district, to inform the decisions of the School Site Council. 

Children benefit by ELAC as their parents' concerns are voiced to the School Site Council, resulting in an impact on decisions at both the school level and the district level. They will see the change in their parents, as the parents are empowered by the trainings they will receive, and as they develop the ability to speak out for their families.

ELAC offers workshops that cover broad areas, such as legal issues involved in working with English Language Learner students, training in reading and homework techniques that can immediately help their children and training in dealing with different family problems.

ELAC provides parents with a forum to express their thoughts and concerns about their children's education at the site and district level. Parents have more expertise about their children's education than they realize.

Online Donations is a Fun, Easy Way to Fundraise

For our Jog-A-Thon, we are using a web-based fundraising system PledgStar that makes it easier for you to request pledges from your family and friends and for them to make secure credit card donations online. It is very user-friendly and is designed specifically for fundraising. People who use this system typically raise twice as much as those who don't!

   Follow the instructions on-screen
   Questions Call 1-888-598-7510 

When you finish, the system emails or texts pledge requests to your family and friends, and allows for them to make secure credit card donations online. You will be notified each time a pledge is made and you can track your pledge progress online.

*Receipts and Thank Yous are sent automatically to all financial supporters. 

 

Send 10+ pledge requests = FREE DRESS FOR A WEEK!  
Bring in 10+ pledges = get entered in a SPECIAL RAFFLE on top of the general raffle for all participants.  

Wondering who to ask for pledges?  Family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, coaches, tutors, doctors, dentists, brokers & agents you do business with, etc.  You can also ask for employer matching.
