Join a School Board Advisory Committee!

Dear Providence District Families,

As your School Board member, I am responsible for appointing one Providence District resident to represent our community on several School Board Advisory Committees, which increase community input to our Board on various important issues.

While several Providence District appointees will continue their service for another year, three committees have openings for the 2024-25 school year that I must fill (APPLY HERE):

  • Adult and Community Education Advisory Committee (ACE): Brings to the School Board’s attention the resource and programmatic issues associated with adult education. Meets monthly, 1-year term.
  • Career and Technical Education Advisory Committee (CTEAC): Advises the School Board on current job needs and the relevancy of career and technical education programs offered. Meets monthly, 1-year term.
  • School Health Advisory Committee (SHAC): Assists with the development of health policy and the evaluation of the status of school health, health education, the school environment, and health services. Meets monthly, 1-year term.

School Board Advisory Committees are essential to our work, meeting throughout the year, advising our Board, and submitting an annual report of recommendations. Please help spread the word about these exciting volunteer opportunities.

I hope you will consider applying to join one of these committees by the deadline on Thursday, June 20, 2024, at 11:59 pm. Following interviews with select applicants, new committee members will likely be approved at a School Board meeting in July.

In service,

Karl Frisch
Chair and Providence Representative
Fairfax County School Board
