• WHAT IS SITE COUNCIL?  

    Site Council is a group of administrators, teachers, and parents that identify ways to support the school community. By providing leadership, direction, and support, we define school priorities and implement ways to improve them. At its core, Site Council is about tailoring the Chief Joseph ES experience to the specific needs of our students and our community.

    So, what do you do?
    We review data, trends, and the things we hear from our community to ensure we design and implement programs that best serve the needs of our students and community. We’re able to determine the types of programs we offer the school community. And, we’re able to direct the ways and manner of our staff’s professional development.

    We’re mandated by the state to:

      • Develop plans to improve the professional growth of the school staff;

      • Improve the school instructional program;

      • Develop and coordinate plans for the implementation of programs under this chapter at the school; and

      • Administer grants-in-aid for the professional development of teachers and classified district employees.

    If you have ideas about issues you’d like the school to address, Site Council is the place to voice your opinion. If you’d like input on programs, priorities, and professional development at Chief Joseph ES, share ideas and input with the principal's assistant, Michelle Rowley (mirowley@pps.net) to be discussed by Site council members.
