========================================
Area Parent Advisory Councils
Area Parent Advisory Council meetings provide parents an opportunity to meet with the district's associate superintendents who represent each area, parents from other neighborhood schools, and community leaders to:

*Provide input concerning school-related issues.
*Make recommendations in support of enhancing learning opportunities and environments.
*Advocate for issues vital to the success of schools, youth, and families in their community.

Each Area Parent Advisory Council selects six people to represent them on the District Parent Advisory Council and six alternates.
