The ECEC Policy Council is a group of Head Start and Early Head Start parents/guardians and Community members who help lead and make decisions about their program.
Policy Council members are elected by the parents/guardians of children enrolled in the program. Meetings are open to all ECEC families and Community members.
Meetings are generally held the second Tuesday of every month beginning at 5:30 p.m.
The next meeting(s) will be held Tuesday, May 2. Please note: A work session is scheduled to occur from 5:30-6:30 p.m. with the Salt River Schools Education Board to review the Policy Council's By-Laws and Code of Ethics (linked below). Policy Council members are encouraged to attend, as are all ECEC families. The Policy Council will meet after the work session at 6:30 p.m. Both meetings will take place in the Education Board Room.
