Join Our Parent Advisory and Charter Trust Land Council
Every American Preparatory school must have a Parent Advisory Committee (PAC). PAC members serve on the school’s Charter Trust Land Council, advise on key family engagement policies, provide input on the Teacher and Student Success Plan and the annual School Improvement Plan (SIP), and participate in other matters important to our students at American Preparatory Academy.
Who can serve on the Parent Advisory Committee?
“Parents” includes parents, legal guardians, and/or grandparents of currently enrolled students. Beginning with SYE 2027, four parents will serve on the PAC for schools with 500 or fewer students and six parents will serve for schools with over 500 students. This means:
- 4 parents will serve on the PAC for APA-Cedar City (fewer than 500 students)
- 6 parents will serve on the PACs for all of the remaining APA schools (over 500 students)
What is the time
commitment?
PAC members annually participate in four meetings that are typically held during regular business hours. Three of those are 1-hour meetings (Fall, Winter, and Spring), with the School Improvement Planning meeting (Summer) running between 1-2 hours. Members are encouraged to participate in person at the school building, though an electronic option is generally provided.
Where can I find more information?
Information about committee composition, elections, meetings, and duties, may be found by visiting these APA policy links: A-4.1 Parent Advisory Committee and A-4.2 Charter Trust Land Councils.
