Community Councils are public meetings and all parents and community members are welcome to attend. The following ideas may help with this process:
· At the first meeting of the year, establish a schedule of regular meeting dates, times and locations
· Hold meetings in a common area, such as the library, multipurpose room or a large classroom
· Publicize the schedule and extend an open invitation to the community
· Send a reminder notice in your newsletter or post fliers
· Establish procedures for accepting public input
· Follow an agenda
· Keep minutes of the meetings and publicize the Council’s plans and decisions
· Begin and end on time
· Keep meetings focused on the goal of improving achievement
