Governance Council –

Calling all interested Teachers!

Help lead our school by running for a seat on the

School Governance Council

Autrey Mill is excited to be among the first schools to join Fulton Count Schools’ Charter System! As a Cohort 1 school, we are making the transition during this school year. Joining the Charter System means more flexibility and opportunities to implement creative, innovative reforms to help all of our students succeed.

As a Cohort 1 school, Autrey Mill will be electing and appointing representatives to our new School Governance Council this fall. The School Governance Council will play a critical role in the success of our school. The Council will develop and approve our strategic plan and budget, and design innovative solutions to increase academic achievement that meet the unique needs of our school community.

If you are interested in serving as a teacher representative on the School Governance Council, you must complete and submit the Candidate Declaration Form by October 31, 2012. This form can be found by going to our school website http://school.fultonschools.org/ms/autreymill/Pages/default.aspx and choosing the “Charter System Cohort 1 Implementation” button.

Don’t wait! Put your name on the ballot today!

 
Where is Livingston?

Leslie Samford states, “With much love and appreciation this week’s Livingston award goes to Sra. Vicki  Alvis.  Vicki is a “rock” for so many of us.  She is a team leader and has been a Student Council advisor for the last 5 years where she has headed up food drives and community service projects.  Vicki  is National Board certified and has presented at both state and national Spanish conferences.  She  continues to be a “lifelong learner” in her foreign language field.”

 

Happy Birthday
