Community Partnership Council

The ACSD Community Partnership Council is made up of high school students, community members, parents, educators, and the district superintendent.  Our mission is to develop and strengthen relationships within our communities to create strong partnerships that support student success and to help ACSD realize the objectives of the Community component of the Strategic Plan. 

The ACSD Community Partnership Council has shifted its work this year to focus on ways the Council can support our community through the pandemic. The Vital Supports Committee has been helping organize the delivery of meal kits to schools for Thanksgiving break and also supported the effort to find volunteer help for the distribution.  This work will continue as needed for school breaks.

The Joy Committee has been working on ideas to connect ACSD students during the pandemic and have started conversations with schools to work on next steps.

How to get involved

Applications for the 2021 - 2022 school year will be open in the spring.  The Council meets monthly Sept-June from 5:30 to 7:30 the first Wednesday of the month; there is typically some subcommittee work between meetings.  Council terms are two-years (renewable once) and begin in September. We value a diversity of community voices and encourage all to apply!

Contact Erika Garner, 382-1183, egarner@acsdvt.org, if you have any questions or would like to be notified when applications are open.
