Shared Decision Making Meetings
In order to better prepare all students to meet the challenges of the 21st Century, the Commissioner of Education has set forth regulations requiring the participation of parents and teachers in school-based planning and shared decision making.
The purpose of shared decision making shall be to improve the educational performance of all students in the school, regardless of such factors as socioeconomic status, race, sex, language background, or disability.
The Shared Decision Making (SDM) Committee meets once a month and minutes are taken at these meetings. Once the minutes are approved by the committee, they will be posted under the Publications and Forms tab. (We are in the process of creating a Shared Decision Making tab on the home page of this website.)
