- Discuss elections, ballots, open seats in preparation for elections. We currently have 3 members in their 2nd year of service: Jen Wright, Candice Marsh, and Amber Sevy. They are welcome to run/apply again.
- Elections for SCC representatives will be held within the first 35 school days of the school year and will remain that way for the following 4 years (established in October 2018).
- Notification of available SCC parent member seats, election dates and procedure for declaring candidacy for the SCC will be given with the registration information from Sandy Elementary at least 10 days prior to elections.
- If the number of candidates is less than or equal to the available seats then all candidates will be appointed to the SCC otherwise a formal election will take place.
- If there are more candidates than available seats, two alternates will be selected from the remaining candidates in the order of the number of votes received. They will be appointed as voting members of the council if a seat is vacated prior to the next election and the council votes to fill the vacated seat.
- The Principal shall oversee the election consistent with 53G-7-1202, elections shall run three consecutive school days.
- The dates for the elections will be determined by the standing SCC at the last meeting of the school year and communicated to the Principal.
- All SCC terms are for two years, with no term limits for parents or guardians. They may serve if they have a child attending Sandy Elementary for at least one year of the two year term.
- If possible, the terms shall be staggered so that no more than 50% of members will be vacated each year.
