Board establishes Student Advisory Committee, adds board liaison language
Summary
The board approved creation of a Student Advisory Committee to formalize student input; a friendly amendment requires the board president and/or one additional board member to serve as liaisons. The motion carried unanimously.
The Grand Ledge Public Schools Board voted July 13 to establish a Student Advisory Committee (SAC) to provide a formal channel for student voice on district matters. Nicole Shannon moved the creation; Dr. Toni Glasscoe seconded. During discussion, Ms. Shannon offered a friendly amendment to Section II.B.4 clarifying that the board president and/or one additional board member shall serve as board liaisons to the SAC; the amendment was supported and included in the approved motion.
The minutes record the board's intent to create a structured forum for student perspectives; the approved change ensures a direct board liaison will attend SAC meetings. The minutes do not include the SAC's final membership size, selection process, or meeting schedule; those details will need to be developed under the Governance Committee's guidance.
