Mission
As in public schools in France, the School Council is responsible for the every day life of the school, pedagogical issues, and decisions affecting the students' life at school, such as the number of hours of class, elective courses, calendar, school regulations and safety.

Composition
The School Council is composed of 21 members: 6 parents, 6 teachers elected from each campus, plus 3 students elected from among the 8th through 12th grade delegates, the heads of the campuses, senior administration personnel, the French Cultural Attaché and the representative of the French population abroad.

Procedure
The School Council has 3 or 4 scheduled meetings per school year. These are usually held in French. With advance notice, a translator may be provided. The minutes are then translated into English and posted on each campus. The Parent Delegates present issues raised by the parents on their campuses and report back to the parents at the next scheduled Room Parent meetings.

Parent Delegates are elected in October. All parents are invited to vote and to present themselves as candidates. We encourage you to submit your candidacy to the Administration.
