SCHOOL ADVISORY BOARDS & EDUCATOR SUPPORT ROLES

ADVISORY BOARDS

All Academy Business Partners are invited to participate in the Academy Advisory Committees! We are each other's best resources and we would greatly welcome your input and ideas. 

  • The Academy Advisory Board is composed of and teachers, students, business partners, and other school staff.

  • The goal is to keep teachers informed on industry trends and to see how the school can support workforce needs for our business partners.

  • Meetings are held 2-3 times per school year to review industry standards of practice and needs and discuss how to improve the instruction provided to students.

Contact the Academy Coach at your partner school for details on the next Advisory Committee meeting.
