ELAC Bay View Academy is holding elections for committee members of the English Learners Advisory Committee (ELAC). The purpose of the English Learners Advisory Committee (ELAC) is to advise the principal and school staff on programs and services for English learners. Parents of English learners (ELs) together with other parents, staff and community members meet to learn about services and programs for English learners and offer advice to improve the education of ELs at our school. The ELAC will meet at least four times a year. Parents of English learners have the right to: • Become informed and provide advice on programs and services for ELs. • Become a member of the ELAC. If you would like to be a member of ELAC, please send your name and contact information via email to the front office at
[email protected] or come by the office to fill out a form. All nominations must be received by 5 pm Tuesday, January 26. If necessary, ballots with the names of those interested in better serving our children will be sent out to parents of English learners the following day; those ballots must be returned by 5 pm Thursday, January 28. The committee will be elected by parents of English learners the same evening. Please let us know if you are interested in learning more about this important committee. Together we can form a well functioning English Learners Advisory Committee and support the education of our children.
A Cabaret to support 5th Grade Come enjoy the talents of Tim Marquette and our very own Avery Allen! The cabaret will include stories, poems, and anecdotes from students in both 5th grade classes. Suggested donation $5 $15/family
