Purpose of the WGSD Legislative Advocacy Committee |
The Webster Groves School District Legislative Advocacy Committee was initiated in fall 2010. It is a politically neutral group of Webster Groves School District citizens, parents, community members, students, and staff that meets regularly with the Superintendent. Its purpose is to research and study public policy issues that have impact on the Webster Groves School District. Guided by the Committee's Statements of Belief, members give feedback to the Superintendent, take a position on the issues, communicate with elected officials, and educate other parents and citizens. Elected officials may attend or send representatives to monthly meetings as their schedules permit. |
