The Calvert County Board of Education continues to accept applications for its 2011-2012 Citizen Advisory Committee. Fourteen members were appointed on August 11, 2011, and up to twenty-five (25) members are appointed annually.
The committee meets on the fourth Monday of the month during the school year from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. at the Brooks Administrative Building in Prince Frederick. It conducts studies in areas of concern to the Board of Education, provides community insight into pending policies and Board decisions, and discusses a variety of issues affecting school system operations.
Information about the committee, the 2011-12 meeting dates, and the application are available on the Calvert County Public Schools website at: http://www.calvertnet.k12.md.us/departments/administration/cac/cac.asp. Citizens may also call Karen Maxey at 410-535-7220 for more information.
Applicants must be residents of Calvert County and may not be full or part time employees of the school system. The Board appoints members through a process that ensures diverse representation; at least four citizens from each high school district will be appointed. Applicants are not required to have children who attend Calvert County Public Schools.
