School Council approves minutes, opens nominations and honors outgoing volunteers

At the School Council meeting, members approved minutes from the previous meeting, opened nominations for two vacant roles — secretary and time monitor — and recognized two volunteers for their service.

Lorena Mendoza, president of the School Council, announced two open positions and asked members to submit nominations; the deadline for nominations was stated as Sept. 12. Mendoza also asked site representatives to mark attendance for parents who arrive later. The council recorded Ruth Alavez as accepting a nomination for secretary; the transcript shows her accepting the nomination.

The council reviewed and approved the minutes of the prior meeting by raised hands; no roll‑call vote was recorded. The council scheduled its next meeting for Sept. 24 and asked members to recruit parents for the open roles. The council closed the meeting after a brief recognition: Mendoza thanked Ruth Alavez and Paloma Valdez for their service and asked attendees to give them a round of applause.

These were organizational, operational actions: minutes approved, nominations opened and recorded (nomination accepted by Ruth Alavez), and volunteers publicly thanked. No binding personnel hires, elections, or policy changes were finalized at the meeting; nominations will be collected for later action.
