A message from Daryle Palmer: Our parent representative for the District's Operation Steering Committee can no longer serve as McGaugh's representative since her child has moved on to middle school.
What is Operations Steering Committee?
This is an advisory committee comprised of staff, parents, and community members. Its purpose is to work together to recommend goals and direction to the LAUSD Board of Education on matters of finance, facilities, lease agreements, bonds, Districtwide fund raising, enrollment, and governance issues such as communication/ collaboration processes. As an active member of our school-community, you most likely are aware of the budget issues facing the State and, therefore, California school districts. These issues will be the primary topic of discussion at our upcoming meeting.
What are the obligations of a representative?
The Operation Steering Committee meets 3 to 4 times a year in the Board Room of the District Office, 10293 Bloomfield Street, Los Alamitos. The meetings begin promptly at 6:30 and conclude no later than 8:00. The meetings are generally held in October, January and March. Occasionally there is a meeting in early June. The dates for the meeting have not been determined at this time.
Who can be a parent representative?
Any parent who has a child attending McGaugh Elementary School is welcomed to be a member. Parents who are not selected as McGaugh's Representation (each elementary school has one official parent representative) are welcome to come to these meeting if they are interested.
